At Daytona GTLM is about 4 seconds a lap faster than GTD cars. But that is all from the infield section and the bus stop chicane. The oval part they are at least the same. I wonder how much closer the GTD cars would be if they had the same tires as the GTLM cars. Instead of 1:47's. I bet it would be 1:45s. Which is where the BMW M8's are right now.
I am thinking we'll get a full season GTLM grid of 8 cars. With GTD being between 11-13. Hopefully for VIR and Lime Rock you'll get some guest entries to give those fields something near the mid 20's in size.
