(Press Release)

SEGA is thrilled to unveil four GT3 cars from Project Motor Racing personally recommended by DRAPOJI brand ambassador, pro racer, and top-class sim racer Tatsuhiko Kato, ahead of the game's launch on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, Epic Games Store, and Windows.

Thanks to a licensing deal with the International Motor Sports Association (IMSA), Project Motor Racing features vehicles from IMSA competitions, allowing players to experience faithful recreations of American endurance and sports car racing events.

Pro Racer Tatsuhiko Kato shares his top four GT3 recommendations, highlighting their features and performance capabilities.

Mercedes AMG GT3

Proof that Europeans do understand that there's no replacement for displacement. 6.2 liters of thunder up front, granite calm out back.

  • Comment from Tatsuhiko Kato

With Mercedes racking up wins in GT3 endurance races since the class was introduced, they came out with this vehicle in 2015. Featuring a 6.2-liter naturally aspirated V8 engine that provides strong torque, this car's stability, which was refined through years of engineering, is proof of the brand's reliability.

You need to experience the model that shaped the history of GT3 for yourself!

Acura NSX GT3 Evo22

A model that balances surgical mid-engine poise with powerful twin-turbo thrust.

  • Comment from Tatsuhiko Kato

Featuring a mid-engine layout, the Acura NSX GT3 Evo22 excels at cornering, powered by a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 engine. Its low center of gravity and ideal weight distribution allow for high speeds when turning, making it the pinnacle of MR design.

With smooth cornering and solid traction, you'll want to give this one a test drive!

Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R

America's mid-engine needle, boasting razor-sharp performance and looks.

  • Comment from Tatsuhiko Kato

Carrying on the spirit of the American muscle car, the Corvette Z06 GT3.R has been crafted under the latest GT3 specifications. The roar of its 5.5-liter naturally aspirated V8 engine is sure to get your blood pumping.

I'd love to see one racing down the circuit in the Super Taikyu's all-new ST-USA class.
