I sort of agree - when I read Tom Kjos' DSC Houston preview where he asked, a touch rhetorically, if a Porsche would ever win a GT2 race again, I bridled a little, thinking if that did indeed come to pass it would be very sad indeed; based on that the perfomances of Autorlando, Ebimotors, et al have been absolutely fantastic, but it's been great for the series to have non-Porsches win major events.
Am I happy that Porsche have won a GT2 title this year? I suppose I am, but sincerely hope the sheer variety we've seen this year (and last) with Panoz, Porsche, Ferrari, TVR, and Spyker all getting a little bit of limelight will be preserved going forward and we don't end up with serried ranks of 911s packing grids.
