Re: GTR Racing Livery - Index
I couldn't locate any photos of a very early GTR with its bonnet cover off but here are some examples of what was there from about mid-1995 (Le Mans 24Hr race) onwards with most of them - in different states of disassembly of course. The sections of carbon tubing seen in some shots here channels air from the center of the nosepiece through the front section of the chassis and into hoses that cool the front brakes.
Yes - the GTRs also had the gas strut rod to keep the door open when it was lifted similar to what you'll find on many car's hatchback lids.
