I thought GTE cars did have good cornering speed. At Daytona, just like Le Mans, the prototypes use low downforce aero kit. But at Daytona in the infield section the GTLM cars were able to stay with the DPI's pretty darn good even in the dry. It was only on the banking when the DPI/LMP2 cars pulled away.
