No

Shame.

Always loved road cars that look like they belong on the track (GT3 et al for example).

Guess my lotto winnings will have to be spent else where.

What's the difference between these two?

DBR9 is the full fat GT1 spec car, the DBRS9 is aimed at GT3. They both share the same block and chassis as the road car but (and don't quote me) I think the DBR9 goes through far more rigorous re-development on the rest of the motor to bring it up to GT1 spec.

The DBRS9 is very expensive, the DBR9 is even more expensive but
