Grand-Am uses GT rules closer to GT-3 than GT-2 because that strategy promotes more affordable racing and larger grids.
The current Porsche 997 RSR GT-2 car costs about $340,000. The Porsche 997 GT-3 Cup costs significantly less.
Twenty Porsche 997 GT's at Daytona versus seven GT-2 997's at Sebring. There were only four GT-2 997's at Le Mans this year.
Just do the math.
As was pointed out by someone previously, the ACO is simply following Grand-Am's lead. That's a smart move.
