\"Mercedes<\/a>
<\/p>\n

The competition version Mercedes SLS AMG GT3<\/a> has been released, destined for the FIA GT3 class. The AMG GT3<\/a> is the first time that AMG has manufactured a competition car for sports-focused clients, which will go on sale from autumn this year, ready for 2011 racing.<\/p>\n

The SLS AMG GT3 is fitted with carbonfibre bodywork, keeping the gull wings, and has been heavily modified to maximise aerodynamics and engine cooling procedures. The front and rear spoilers, side skirts and bumpers have all been redesigned, and we see a new bonnet and fuel distribution system with filler pipes in the C pillars taking petrol to the centrally located, 120-litre tank.<\/p>\n

The SLS AMG GT3 is 1,990 mm wide, which is an extra 50 mm on the series version. The V8, 6.3-litre engine is the same as the 571-hp series model, but has a dry carter and will comply with FIA ‘balance of performance’ regulations, which will eventually determine the output of the race version. Transmission will be a six-speed sequential gearbox with steering wheel controls and autobloc differential. A new competition braking system is included with cast iron brakes and six pistons at the front with ABS technology.<\/p>\n

Alloy wheels are featured measuring 12×18″ at the front and 13×18″ at the rear. The GT3 interior is minimalist in true racing style, and features roll bars and an electronic command system which replaces the original instrumentation. The racing bucket seat combines nicely with the open top steering wheel, meaning you’ll feel every bit the part once inside the race version SLS AMG.<\/p>\n
