Morgan Plus 8

Morgan is famous for its other entrances into sports car racing, specifically Legends style racing, but never Professional Sports car racing. This car is designed for the GT2 class, which also features the Viper and Mustangs, as well as some Camaros and BMWs. So far, I have no knowledge of it winning anything, but the look of the car is great. It also features all of the usual features of a racer, including a roll cage, a wing, and an alloy fuel cell, with a rubber bladder.
