Juntos is a back marker

Even if no one cares about this racing series, this is a good championship for slow drivers like the championship promoter.

Well that's Oregon winning the Championship for a second year.

What is the point of a Pro Class, similar to GTWC America.

They are the only 2 cars in PRO currently, and unlikely many will join them.. Doesnt make much sense

Seems no point in having the Pro class if they aren't going to get the numbers. Why are they even bothering?

Didnt realise that the season starts this weekend in Portimao. Grid is looking really good.33 cars for the first round, 10 PRO entries. A pleasant surprise.

They also managed to get 17 cars for the GT CUP Open category. Again, not bad given some of the entries previously.

Does the series have a rule where you can only enter 2022 spec cars or earlier? I think all the Ferraris on the grid were 488s. The one Porsche was a 991.

No there isn't. I imagine its a mix of the Am's preferring the older models and there not being any 296 or 992 GT3s available.

The further we go with GT3 the less perhaps difference and performance gap there is between models and evolutions.

It's getting harder to find new cars that are easily affordable. I think they should stick with GT3 and hope enough entries keep the series going

What a load of rubbish! "Keep the series going"...yet they've got over 30 cars and in general more and more people with the money are going down the GT3 route now...

I didn't notice this before but the GT Open and GT Cup Europe grids are combined this weekend. 53 cars on track.

Was a good race on a very interesting program of varying categories.

Probably was a good idea to combine the categories. Got plenty of variety as you say and meant there was action up and down the field.
