lack of N-GT in FIA-GT
why is there such a lack of N-GT cars in the FIA-GT this year? is it because the Euro teams want to race in the ALMS due to the strength of the GT class there? the upcoming race at hockenheim only has 8 N-GT cars, with Freisinger entering 3 cars alone

Yeah, but grids are slowly getting bigger for NGT. We started the year with 6 NGT cars, thats now up to 8. Sure its not a great number, but its enough to have a good race, and the numbers are slowly rising. Graham, I agree with what u say about the category being very expensive for privateers and that being another reason for lack of numbers this year, but I think the main reason that the entries has dwindled this year is the LMES. Im expecting to see the FIA GT, NGT grids grow slowly this year, perhaps reaching 12 per round by he end of the season.
Still, cant really complain sportscar racing in Europe is now bigger and better than it has been in ages, we have 2 strong major series in Europe that are both thriving, and both will continue to grow. |
