What is the bylaw they found to get it into the races? The rule state the car must be in production to race, but this car will never see production (supposedly).

Super GT - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For GT500, I found some mention of corresponding road-going variants, but no idea how many are required nor whether that is strictly managed... I do know that Honda says they will compete in this category, however!

The loophole is that they can state that the car is a continuation of an existing or previous road going model, doesn't seem to matter how different the car is.

I thought about that later, but then in my mind it is a completely different vehicle from the ground up. If they kept the engine placement (mid-engine) or something I could see the argument, but this car is nothing like the original NSX.

The loophole if i understand correctly was that the car had to be production READY, in which it is. Apparently nowhere in the rules does it say the car actually has to be in production.
