'17 CTMP full IWSC grid (all classes) 36 cars
'17 Laguna race full IWSC grid (all classes) no split
'18 Mid Ohio = 2.4 mile track > we'll see the full IWSC field.

Atherton has repeatedly stated that split races will only occur where it has to and that IMSA does not want to split the grid. An expansion of split races is not on the horizon!
