Watkins Glen and Road Atlanta are about the same length if you're talking about deleting the boot at WG.
Big problem is that if you get rid of GTD from the endurance races, you're going to shrink the field big time. Even for the sprint races the field will be significantly smaller.
I'd personally would like to know how much per hour it costs to run these cars, especially for paying drivers. Maybe on some weekends divide GTD from GTLM and Prototype and have their own shorter race on Saturday or Friday after the Sports Car Challenge races? IMO, it's always been a bit odd that the one dedicated pro-am class actually does the most hours worth or racing every season.
