Frankly, if you're not worried about the GTD class then you either don't care about it either way or don't have the facts (not throwing stones at you in particular chernaudi!). The writings been on the wall for a couple seasons.

Wow what Mike is saying here is significant. A question for you Mike. Does the high costs correlate with the number of hours of track time that IMSA runs per season?
If so, I think the only thing that can be done for 2018 is probably dropping Laguna. But beyond this year could something really drastic be needed such as dropping GTD from Road Atlanta!? Just to get the number of hours of race time reduced.
