Trust me.... 80% of actual performance status quo between GTLM and GTD is given by bop and tires.
488 gt3 scored pole in 1.20.6, while 488 gtlm scored pole in 1.17.6.

488 gt3 is about 100kg heavier than 488 gtlm. 488 gt3 uses spec continental rubbish compound, 488 gtlm uses confidential michelin compound.
488 gt3 is also a bit less powerful than 488 gtlm, according to bop sheet pressures.

Well.... let 488 gt3 run at same weight of 488 gtlm, let the car use gt-open michelin tires and don't surprise if 488 gt3 will reveal to be faster than her big sister
