Brabham BT63 GT2

The Brabham BT63 GT2 is a customer racing car revealed by Brabham Automotive in August 2021 as a concept for the GT2 class of the European GT2 series, which began in 2022. It is a development of the company's BT62 competition car, built around the same tubular steel chassis clothed in carbonfibre, with double wishbone pushrod suspension and rear wheel drive through a pneumatic sequential transmission. The Ford-derived dry-sump 5.4 litre V8 is detuned to about 600 horsepower, roughly 100 horsepower less than the standard BT62, and the car carries a new aerodynamic package written to the GT2 rules. Because those rules set a higher minimum weight than many other racing classes, Brabham gave a target mass of between 1,250 and 1,300 kilograms, well above the BT62 dry weight. The price quoted at launch was about 340,000 pounds, or 400,000 euros, with factory support offered. It was announced as a concept with figures that were still targets, and it was set to rival GT2 cars from Audi, KTM, Lamborghini and Porsche.
