No, almost all of the "GP" works were stillborn. The efforts of the owners (led by Kevin Wheatcroft) since then have been focused on restoring the circuit to its previous state. This is largely complete with some additional improvements. A very considerable amount of money has been spent on the circuit, looks like far in excess of Kevin's personal expenditure on his other interests.

But GP? No sign of that being any more sensible/feasible than it was nine years ago. (Thankfully, as far as I'm concerned.)
