McLaren has given the 12C GT3 the once over for the 2013 competition season. Those who already own one of the race-spec cars can order the tweaks as a stand-alone package, effectively updating their vehicles to 2013 spec. McLaren says the updates are designed to improve drivability, reliability and efficiency while simultaneously simplifying the machine's mechanicals. A new aerodynamic package, refreshed ECU, electrical system and revised suspension dampers are all part of the kit. Buyers can look forward to improved cooling thanks to a new hood and extensive duct work.
Engineers claim the changes should allow the new 12C GT3 to compete at higher temperatures for longer periods of time, and the new aero work will reduce tire wear over the course of a race.
Last year, the 12C GT3 competed in a total of 98 race events, and brought home 19 outright wins and an additional 19 podium finishes. Moving forward, the car will be available to GT teams around the world as well as private collectors.
