So I've been doing some digging online and coming up a bit short with any real details on these two awesome cars. I can't find much beyond the info found in the various press releases when they launched these cars, for example, for the R3T, the article will say something like " special attention was taken with supplying the car with adjustable suspension".........or "the car is equipped with a mechanical LSD"....While that's cool to know, I'd like to know things like who exactly makes the suspension for the R3T or Corse models? What other changes have they made? Just sort of fill in the blanks on a lot of this info.

For example, I can find this info about the Corse

I can understand teams keeping things like spring rates, swaybar sizes etc.... confidential, but these car's are all homologated to run in spec series, I just can't seem to find those exact specs haha.

The reason I ask is because while I'm not likely to be fitting a sequential trans to my road car, things like what kind of dampers the Corse and R3T models use could be useful to know, who makes the LSD etc.... These are all spec car's, where do these guys go to buy their spares ya know haha? I'm sure they work direct with FIAT, or Abarth motorsport division, but typically you can find stuff like this online. I've not been able to dig any of that up.

So if any of you have any info like that, it would be much apreciated if you could share it, or can point me in the right direction of where to find it.

Thanks!

Is it just me or the tires seem really small? Perhaps for Fiat racing?

^^Haha, I think they're actually spare tires. I believe they just bolt those on so that they can move them around during assembly. I imagine the proper motorsport wheels get bolted on before delivery though, depending on what discipline the buyer is purchasing the car to race in.

FWD but those tires would sure make drifting easy, hand brake drifting but still. :D
