In 2000, Panoz began development of the Esperante road car, as a replacement to the Panoz Roadster.

The race car made a comeback in 2003, to star in the 1,000 KM of Le Mans, before taking part in the 24 Hours of Sebring, 24 Hours of Le Mans and Le Mans Series (only at Spa-Francorchamps) in 2004. The car competed between 19, finishing in commendable positions in the US, with varied results in Europe. Originally designed for the FIA GT Championship in 1996, the GTR-1 has since competed in the 24 Hours of Le-Mans, American Le Mans Series, IMSA GT, and United States Road Racing Championship. The Panoz Esperante GTR-1 is a Le-Mans race car designed by Panoz Auto Development, Ford and Reynard Motorsport. This glitch can be fixed by modding Midtown Madness 2. Curbs are abundant in the cities of San Francisco and London, which means that it is quite easy to damage out a GTR-1 in a race.ĭue to a poorly tuned suspension, the GTR-1 will get pushed through the ground by its own downforce while driving at excess speeds of around 220 miles per hour, which will also damage the car. The low ride height even causes the car to crash into curbs, which really damages it.

The GTR-1 is also not good for driving off-road as it has very poor ground clearance and has lots of wheelspin and oversteer because of the amount of power in the rear wheels. Unfortunately, this outstanding performance comes at the cost of having very low durability. It also has an incredibly high top speed of 287 miles per hour. The GTR-1 has excellent acceleration and handling. It is undoubtedly the fastest vehicle in Midtown Madness 2 and the original Midtown Madness, but it is also the least durable. The Panoz GTR-1 is a standard racing vehicle unlocked by completing the first six London Checkpoint races in a podium position in Midtown Madness 2.
