Yup, and it wouldn't be in Japanese GT either... it'd get skewered by the GT500 cars, and in fact maybe even the GT300s. They are tube framed, purpose built racers, not many production cars, no matter how special, can keep up with that type of machine.

Makes me wonder though, who is gonna make the first LFA replica, and on what chassis?

I dont see why not. They are making the car to compete with other super cars like Porsche and others. Most of the car is carbon fiber. So many other little things to consider I dont see why they wouldnt.

Well considering the LFA has competed in VLN races in 2008, 2009, winning in the 4 hr races and having a more difficult time in the 24 hr ones...perhaps we will see them compete again next year?
