SCCA Trans-Am Series

You need to remember, there's a big differential in power between the two. In this day of age where you are penalized for being aggressive, there TA1 cars have a massive advantage. All they have to do is get in front of a GT3 car. do their one move at the end of the straight and then slow down the GT3 car. Even if the GT3 car gets around, the straight line handling of the TA1 car will prevail. You can only drive the wheels off a GT3 for so long until you are beat into submission by that TA1 power.

Throttle back n the TA1 power then you have another issue, the GT3 downforce takes over and will beat the TA1 tires into submission.

In both scenarios, you might have 15 minutes of good racing then that's all. Fans will love it and the competitors will not. Thus you end up with a small field yet again and thus the fans don't like it.
