VW Virtus GT Converted Into A Racecar For The Indian Touring Championship | Carscoops carscoops

producing 212 hp and 300 Nm of torque. This is a healthy upgrade over the street-legal Virtus GT which makes 148 hp and 250 Nm of torque. Power is transmitted to the front wheels, but the seven-speed DSG is gone, replaced by a more suitable six-speed sequential gearbox.

reports that the weight of the car is reduced from 1,275 kg to 1,080 kg , mostly thanks to the stripped-out interior and basic equipment. The lower weight combined with the increased power output should have a noticeable effect on performance., the track-prepped VW Virtus GT will make its racing debut on October 8-9 in Chennai, ahead of the new season of the Indian National Racing Car Championship.
