Yesterday Aurora Racing Designs announced that is developing an FIA GT1 race car based on the BMW-Alpina B6. Using experience from the B6 GT3 project, the new race car will be developed exclusively by Aurora for customers looking to campaign in the GT1 World Championship.
Little info about the car has been given at this point, but it looks it will be a worthy addition to the GT1 field.

Funny how le mans announced that theres going to be no GT1 class from 2011 eh? XD
That's great news, hopefully the car will have better reseults than the GT3 version.
It always seemed to be to big for GT3, I think they are heading the right direction.
What Planet are they on. Rumours everywhere about FIA GT1 future. Will it even exist next year..... Will the series even make the end of the season GT1 dropped in ALMS and Le Mans....one assumes LMS included, could make this a big white dinosaur
While sadly GT1's are being dropped from Le Mans, if the FIA series contiunes I hope to see this. I've always wanted to see the 6-series in GT racing.
get that livery from the M3 in nfs most wanted and its ready haha
FIA GT1 will be lucky to see out the season
What is BMW-ALPINA ? I always thought that the Alpina is a car manufacturer. The BMW VIN serial number on the chassis is crossed over and replaced whit ALPINA VIN.
V10!!!
And Mats, the Alpina uses a V8.
What the hell are you people talking about? The GT1 World Championship isn't going anywhere.
Guys, FIA GT1 and Le Mans GT1 are completely different series. As Solotwo said GT1 World Championship isn't going anywhere.
