I agree - GT cars in the wet are great to photograph, you can get some very impressive spray shots and lights blazing is always a good look

The most tedious race I've ever seen was 9 Radicals on the Brands GP loop (it got worse as they lost a couple early on). I went back to the car and had a snooze. As you say - I'm sure Radicals are great for the drivers but I've never watched a Radical race and come away thinking "that was great".

credit where it's due - MSV have done a good job of getting the circuits opened up and making it viable for spectators to be there.
