This culminated in the GMA T.50s Niki Lauda, a beast of a car that recently demonstrated its capabilities at the Bahrain International Circuit by lapping it faster than any other GT3 race car has ever done.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-237203\"\/><br \/><iframe title=\"Gordon Murray&#039;s V12 Masterpiece: New GMA T.50s! | 4K\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ywa3aUMnS3Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><noscript><iframe title=\"Gordon Murray&#039;s V12 Masterpiece: New GMA T.50s! | 4K\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ywa3aUMnS3Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><br \/>\nDario Franchitti, a development driver and racing veteran with multiple championship victories, set a lap time of 1:53.03 in the closing rounds of testing.

It\u2019s basically a well made work of art. They experimented with the cylinder heads, camshafts, and intake to see what worked best. They even managed to fit a ram air scoop onto the roof. This yields a whopping 761 horsepower at 11,500 rpm, with 367 lb-ft of torque available around 8,000 rpm. This beast is both a screamer and a lightweight, weighing only 166 kg.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/09211607\/gma-t-50s-niki-lauda-track-gt3-1.jpg\" alt=\"GMA T.50s Niki Lauda Track GT3\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>When wet, this beauty weighs just under 900 kilograms. The monocoque, body panels, and the majority of other important pieces are made of carbon fiber. The suspension is equipped with adjustable R53 dampers for compression and rebound, as well as carbon-ceramic brakes and magnesium wheels, to reduce unsprung mass. They were able to get the most out of it by employing slick Michelins specifically designed for circuit work.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/09211626\/gma-t-50s-niki-lauda-track-gt3-2.jpg\" alt=\"GMA T.50s Niki Lauda Track GT3\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>They replaced the road car\u2019s manual transmission with an Xtrac six-speed sequential gearbox. It\u2019s not that the road car\u2019s manual was horrible, but the paddles on the new one deliver quick, positive changes, and the entire transmission is lighter by about 5 kilograms. It all adds up to shifts that feel F1-like, keeping the driver completely focused on the road ahead.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/09211646\/gma-t-50s-niki-lauda-track-gt3-3.jpg\" alt=\"GMA T.50s Niki Lauda Track GT3\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>Then there\u2019s the aerodynamics, with the rear fan reaching 7,000 rpm even at low speeds, pulling air through the underbody and producing a remarkable 2,645 pounds of downforce. Combine that with an aggressive front splitter, dive planes, a rear diffuser, and a fixed wing, and you have a rocket that stays planted at high speeds no matter how soon the driver decides to push the throttle after a corner.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> GMA T.50s Niki Lauda Delivers Track Speed That Leaves GT3 Cars Behind<br \/>\n<br \/>#GMA #T.50s #Niki #Lauda #Delivers #Track #Speed #Leaves #GT3 #Cars<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gordon Murray\u2019s goal was to create a race car for the track that prioritizes driver&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2994,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[2834,544,2828,2833,2831,2044,2830,1391,2829,2832],"class_list":["post-2993","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tech","tag-cars","tag-delivers","tag-gma","tag-gt3","tag-lauda","tag-leaves","tag-niki","tag-speed","tag-t-50s","tag-track"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/gma-t-50s-niki-lauda-track-gt3.jpg",960,961,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/gma-t-50s-niki-lauda-track-gt3-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/gma-t-50s-niki-lauda-track-gt3-300x300.jpg",300,300,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/gma-t-50s-niki-lauda-track-gt3-768x769.jpg",640,641,true],"large":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/gma-t-50s-niki-lauda-track-gt3.jpg",640,641,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/gma-t-50s-niki-lauda-track-gt3.jpg",960,961,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/gma-t-50s-niki-lauda-track-gt3.jpg",960,961,false],"covernews-featured":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/gma-t-50s-niki-lauda-track-gt3.jpg",960,961,false],"covernews-medium":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/gma-t-50s-niki-lauda-track-gt3-540x340.jpg",540,340,true]},"author_info":{"display_name":"admin","author_link":"https:\/\/news678.top\/?author=1"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/news678.top\/?cat=8\" rel=\"category\">Tech<\/a>","tag_info":"Tech","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2993","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2993"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2993\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2994"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2993"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2993"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2993"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
