Haven't heard that, and have that's what they have been needing for years at the Tier 1 event.
A few years back our class has the opportuntunity to run at a Tier1 event. We were given 3 weeks notice before the race weekend and fronted up with nearly 30 cars on the grid.

From what I do hear a similar thing is happening at the supertourer rounds,
but they are laptime limited. i.e. only cars between xxx and xxx laptimes,
a lot slower than the new supertourers will be.
