GTLM times in qualifying are close to LMP2 in ALMS 2013 at VIR. I wonder if the DP/P2 cars of 2014-2016 ran today. They would barely be faster than the GTLM cars which really are quick around VIR. But I'm glad we don't have to worry about that or DPIs. Because VIR is a great track to have all GT racing.

I am very pleased that IMSA is keeping VIR and Lime Rock to be all GT races in 2018. Also removing GTD from Long Beach is probably a good thing. Although I would have preferred that also be all GT. But I guess that would have made the DPI schedule too light.
