It’s official - Zavir is entering Sadly just for the GT-R class - after seeing my GT-P prototype needing 14l/100km I guessed that there’s no way I’m making it
Zavir Aera GTR - 2.7 turbo V6, 500+hp, AWD, under 4s to 100 Now I’ll have to design it

What is this, Group B?!
If we were following the Erin canon correctly, I’d be entering a 780hp monster that was borderline undrivable
Well, yes, that is the exact car (modified a bit) that will be the second of the two that Zavir used in the Group B
A Group B endurance racer - I look forward to this.
Mine only shares a passing resemblance to the original Xenon. No original parts remain…
500+HP, for goodness sake, ive got to redesign my car now. I limited it to 250hp to make it driveable. That being said, it is a light car, very light…
I thought only people could take steroids. Back to the drawing board…
Yeah, this car is REALLY on steroids, since the road-going Aera is just a basic sporty model
Well thank you for sticking that song in my head…just great
Group C vs Group B… That will be interesting
#Zavir Aera GTR
Some stats:
Nice. I mean, who doesn’t love a Group B monster?
But for a 24 hour endurance race, one might recommend something a little more…
…sophisticated.
Presenting the 1985 ErinSport CRP-3A, the latest creation from our esteemed Prototypes department - more specifically, the latest work from their Group C Development Programme. The CRP-3 platform is a heavily modified version of its predesscor, the CRP-2, and features a steel-alloy tub chassis with a Kevlar-composite body, all-round double wishbone suspension with inboard shocks and fully customisable engine and transmission mounting for optimum weight distribution.
This particular one, chassis no. 4, is a re-purposed spare car, and has been fitted with modified version of the 3.6l Turbo V6 found in the World Sportscar Championship-competitor that ran in the 1985 season. It’s been shrunk down to size to comply with regulations, but still packs a hefty 377 hp.
It’s also rocking the iconic navy blue two-tone livery that ErinSport cars ran with from 1984 to 1989. Driving this beauty will be the team of ErinSport #32, who finished 4th at Le Mans in '85 and 2nd at the 1000km of Brands Hatch that year. They are:
[ul]- Jordan Kielers, a floppy-haired German known for pushing his car to the limit regardless of the consequences and usually bringing the car home in one piece.
ErinSport would like to wish all competitors the best of luck in this race, and may the best team win!
Would I scare anyone if I mentioned the Xenon II Prototype is running 430+ horsepower?
I think not after I scared everyone
Yeah, but you’re using turbos. Mine’s NA.
What’s the top speed of that thing anyways?
Less than 300 km/h
You want a sophisticated group B monster modified for 24 Hour endurance? Well, I think I have one here…
