Jameson should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
FIA GT is clearly on highest level. A lot of top teams and most of them with purely pro line-ups. Only 3-4 cars with 1 amateur in. It looks like a Ferrari Challenge, that's right. Ferrari has the best teams and loads of good drivers (Bruni, Bell, Kirkaldy, Biagi, Montanari, Mullen etc). Only the works Porsche of Collard-Westbrook has done decent results, while Palttala and Williams have been unarmed with their slower teammates. Williams even runs Pirelli. Vantage was there in the last race, by the way.

ALMS comes close, top is really tough, as good as FIA, and the racing is excellent. It seems to me that the manufacturers are supporting ALMS more than the European series.

LMS is not even close to the above two. The teams are smaller and only a couple of really good line-ups (Bruni-Bell, Lieb-Davison). The rest of the cars are filled with 1 or 2 gentleman drivers. This doesn't mean that the racing wasn't good, though!
