Technically the GT1 cars are still GT cars ie closer to GTE cars, however during the later half of GT1 , manufacturers started to bend the rules starting with porsche , the 911 GT1 is basically a prototype entered in the GT1 class. They made a couple of road versions. Mercedes, mclaren, nissan,toyota etc followed. Basically it was made for GT cars but ended up with prototypes acting as GT cars. As for their speed, actual prototypes took victory at le mans in 96 and 97 (of course reliability had a big part to play )and porsche won le mans with the 911 GT1 98 in 98 and bmw won with an actual prototype v12 lmr over the GT1 toyotas in 99.
