Veloce Bearer GT3
2005 Chevrolet Equinox
The Veloce Bearer GT3 reimagines the 2005 Chevrolet Equinox as a precision-engineered GT3 race car, shedding its crossover roots for a track-focused identity. Its bodywork is transformed with a +460 mm wide carbon fiber widebody kit that not only broadens the stance but integrates advanced aerodynamic features such as triple vortex generators and vented rear arches to optimize airflow and stability at high speeds. The lowered double wishbone suspension with aggressive camber angles complements the sculpted chassis, delivering razor-sharp handling tailored for endurance racing.
Under the hood, a purpose-built 3.8L twin-turbo V6 with dry sump lubrication produces a robust 580 hp, calibrated specifically for consistent power delivery and reliability on demanding circuits. The massive two-tier GT3 wing and full underbody diffuser work in concert to generate substantial downforce without compromising drag, making the Veloce Bearer GT3 a formidable contender capable of mastering corners and long straights alike with surgical precision.

Wave 15
What if GT3 Built This: Vol. 1
Our builds are a wild sprint through an alternate GT3 multiverse where muscle, metal, and madness collide with pro racing precision. We took the classic and the unexpected — from British lightweights to American muscle icons and even a crossover that forgot it was an SUV — then shoved them headfirst into the unforgiving world of FIA GT3 racing.
