It is, and in real life the Valkyrie isssss... An LMH. The Protoform Venturi seems to be the hot body at my track and I think it's ugly. Not saying anything about the form because I'm still using a Vittoria. I wish it was all GT1/2/3 based cars.
As far as the tires go, we ran the grey belted ones all last summer in the parking lot and really didn't have any issues. The track is pretty massive so a lot of our final drives were under 3.0. The gearing makes the car even easier to drive. I found that if the car did start to slide at all mid corner, I'd just stay in it and with the lack of torque it wouldn't have enough power to spin out. I was saucing with either liquid wrench, or 3.0 max depending on the prep level of the track that weekend. As the summer went on I did start to have issues with the tires tearing where the glue rib and sidewall met.
I was worried about the grip after seeing a few others the season before have issues with the belted tires on asphalt, so I built the car with tons of mechanical grip from the start and slowly worked away from that through the season. Looking forward to another awesome summer of fun this year. USGT and GT8 FTW!

have yall tried the Superrad SR-30 body??? Bwoah was always too on the nose for me , and the SR-30 puts it to shame in my opinion. I have tried both back to back. And the bwoah was always edgy and nervous. Even after raising the rear wing up about 8-10mm to match the height of the P1z which was the king at the time

Nah.. that was RCGT 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 .. since 1/10 LMP classes are popping up everywhere.. maybe its time to tighten the rules and push the bwoah etc into LMP and make this class a proper GT again.

will never happen. Its like trying to saddle train a wild horse. They let everything get so out of control it will be hard to reel it back in……then again I could be completely wrong.

as far as USGT rules go, there is no committee. It's Rob's call and only Rob's call for national rules. If you disagree with what's on the list, take it up with your local race director.

yea sir . I have used this body for both Cleveland and snowbirds wins.
it is modeled after the Pagani Zonda like the P1z from Exotek.
I have tried all the GT body’s , and this one is a no brainer for me . Extremely well handling body , especially for carpet.
it is on the list, and legal.
