That puts us at an interesting space in grid sizes.
Knowing we have a 35 entry cap, you can assume they would ideally like something around 15 GT3's and 20 GT4's
Heres the CONFIRMED ONLY entries so far
GT3
ABBA Racing - Mercedes AMG GT3 - Richard Neary / Sam Neary
Balfe Motorsport - Mclaren 720s GT3 - Rob Bell / Shaun Balfe
Barwell Motorsport - Lamborghini Huracan GT3 Evo - Adam Balon / Phil Keen
JMH Automotive - Lamborghini Huracan GT3 Evo - John Seale / Jamie Stanley
RAM Racing - Mercedes AMG GT3 Evo - Ian Loggie / Yelmer Buurman
RAM Racing - Mercedes AMG GT3 Evo - Sam De Haan / Patrick Kujala
Total - 6
Add to that the likely 2x TF Sport cars, 1x Beechdean, potentially 1 more Barwell, 1-2 Bentleys, 1-2 Century GT3's, you'd already be at 14....
GT4
Academy Motorsport - Ford Mustang GT4 - TBA / TBA
Academy Motorsport - Ford Mustang GT4 - TBA / TBA
Balfe Motorsport - Mclaren 570s GT4 - TBA / TBA
Balfe Motorsport - Mclaren 570s GT4 - TBA / TBA
Century Motorsport - BMW M4 GT4 - Ben Hurst / Andrew Gordon-Colebrooke
Century Motorsport - BMW M4 GT4 - TBA / TBA
Optimum Motorsport - Aston Martin Vantage GT4 - Connor O’Brien / TBA
Optimum Motorsport - Aston Martin Vantage GT4 - TBA / TBA
Tolman Motorsport - Mclaren 570s GT4 - Katie Milner / Michael Benhahia
Tolman Motorsport - Mclaren 570s GT4 - Harry Hayek / Alain Valente
Total - 10
But of course as always the tighter squeeze would be in GT4, with 10 cars already confirmed, even if there was only a 14 car GT3 grid, there is only another 11 spaces available.
HHC are taking their Mclarens to the continent in 2020, so we will likely see this years 6 Mclaren GT4s go down to the current confirmed 4. A small easing of pressure.
I always think the British GT off season is the most fascinating. They announce a nice trickle of entries regularly with which teams play along with, and the grid capacity for certain circuits makes for an interesting conundrum.
EDIT- I Also wonder if we will see the newly appointed Mclaren factory driver Euan Hankey here, with new Mclaren Development driver Ollie Wilkinson.... Or maybe they end up in the GT Open

Ill echo whats been said before on here, I love the way British GT let the off season announcements pan out, builds excitement for sure.
We are almost 50% of the grid capacity announced, with 7 GT3s and 10 GT4s. Others are rumoured and suggested but the list below only covers those confirmed.
Hoping we will see a 15+ GT3 field at least this year, I think 15 GT3s, 20 GT4s is a nice balance.
So far looking like GT3 will be Balfe vs Barwell vs Ram
British GT (35 car limit - 17/35)
GT3 - 7 cars
ABBA Racing - Mercedes AMG GT3 - Richard Neary / Sam Neary
Balfe Motorsport - Mclaren 720s GT3 - Rob Bell / Shaun Balfe
Barwell Motorsport - Lamborghini Huracan GT3 Evo - Adam Balon / Phil Keen
JMH Automotive - Lamborghini Huracan GT3 Evo - John Seale / Jamie Stanley
RAM Racing - Mercedes AMG GT3 Evo - Ian Loggie / Yelmer Buurman
RAM Racing - Mercedes AMG GT3 Evo - Sam De Haan / Patrick Kujala
Team Parker Racing - Bentley Continental GT3 - Nick Jones / Scott Malvern
GT4 - 10 cars
Academy Motorsport - Ford Mustang GT4 - TBA / TBA

Assuming an Aston or 3 will show agaim?
How about one from leftfield... a well run, well driven Lexus or more likely a Porsche based on their successes in various series last year?

TF Sport are all but confirmed for 1-2 Astons in GT3
Maybe a single Porsche for full or partial season
Lexus seems unlikely
