all top performers had GT wings on their car, which I think is very very important at Macau track as it's bumpy and long straight away, with couple blind 120+mph corners.

Is that air intake on rear window functional? I read somewhere it was required "for homologation purposes only".

These side mirrors. They are the same one on the Super GT NSX. Where can I get those?

From the video, it appears that corner was a problem for a lot of cars. The NSX took a pretty hard hit!

 

[R0Y]

actually that wasn't really a major problem although it is a 90 degree turn... the "Lisbo A Bend" was the worst...
