Ford Mustang GT3

Front-engined · Naturally aspirated V8 · Downforce 3/5

Front-running pace with exceptional tyre life — the endurance pick. Naturally aspirated, so power arrives predictably.

Its tyre life means you can run a more aggressive balance than usual and still be there at the end of a stint.
