Regarding that Aston-Corvette 06 IMSA fiasco - that really was uncommon at the time, as you can see here http://tentenths.com/forum/showpost....&postcount=424 (and http://tentenths.com/forum/showpost....&postcount=426) Now, mr Gavin earlier this year on DSC http://www.dailysportscar.com/2014/0...is-sights.html Quote:

Turning the 235M into a GT4 car would take some work... reportedly they are doing 2.44s around Spa....GT4s can go 10+ seconds faster. BTW, for those that are saying that GT3 isn't too expensive for some series: Looks like the Belgian GT-series is a goner for next year and GT-Open and French GT-Tour will have shared fields at numerous events Last edited by Speed-King; 3 Oct 2014 at 21:05. |

Good to see some more interest in new GT4 cars, much prefer those as a 'second' category (perfectly capable of headlining on their own though).

Personally, I think they should keep it simple. No GTE. Stick to GT3 and GT4 with the various one make Cup, Challenge and Trofeo one make series built to GT4 type reg so that they can be raced in multi make GT racing as well, as as required.
Yes there would need to be some BoP but there is already in GT3 so the motorsport works is already used to it. |

French GT is exploring the possibility of adding a secondary category for Solution-F-built tubeframe coupes for next year. These cars would run in the same field as the GT3 cars.
Link (En francaise) With only 16 GT3-cars showing up for the most recent round at Nogaro, such a move seems pretty understandable, but I think most fans would have preferred proper GT-cars for the secondary division. |

Add a GT4 class or similar cheaper GT class to bring grid to 24 to 28 cars. |

If GT3.5 or similar were to happen it would be great if they could find a way of getting 458 challenge, Porsche cup, Lamborghini super trofeo, maserati trofeo and similar cars to run together without huge discrepancies in performance.
However if you were to do this you would basically end up with what GT3 was originally designed to be. |

Behind the business-as-usual GT3s the Italian GT has GTC1 class for Cup cars
