WPI Motorsport mentioned they'll be back next year, their current Huracan GT3 is up for sale so i presume they'll have a new chassis.

As always, we assume the capacity has remained at 35 for full season, with one offs allowed at a majority of tracks
We are 10 in, with another entry in GT3 due tomorrow. I’m guessing we are looking at the usual 13-14 GT3s with 15-16 GT4s hopefully bouncing back from last year British GT 2022 (10/35 Car Capacity) GT3 Class - 4 Cars Barwell Motorsport - Lamborghini Huracan GT3 - Adam Balon / Sandy Mitchell Barwell Motorsport - Lamborghini Huracan GT3 - Leo Machitski / Dennis Lind Redline Racing - Lamborghini Huracan GT3 - Alex Malykhin / James Darlin WPI Motorsport - Lamborghini Huracan GT3 - Phil Keen / Michael Igoe GT4 Class - 6 Cars Inspire Racing - Ekris M4 GT4 - Richard Marsh / Gareth Howell Motus One - McLaren 570s GT4 - Stewart Lines / Will Powell Newbridge Motorsport - Aston Martin Vantage GT4 - Darren Turner / Matt Topham R Racing - Aston Martin Vantage GT4 - Josh Miller / TBC Team BRIT - McLaren 570s GT4 - Aaron Morgan / Bobby Trundley Team Parker Racing - Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Clubsport - Seb Hopkins / TBC |

Just imagine how a BTCC thread would develop if a question of how 'confirmed' an entry is was raised?

I was just going with the press release when they bought the M4 GT3 as they said they will be running 1 GT3 and the 2 GT4, so took it as pretty much confirmed.

I recently watched British GT the 2000 to 2003 season on the tube and must say WOW
how the heck we went from that to this ? there was such a big variety of cars , many self build ones , the racing was fast and furious and now we have this sterrile , just another GT3 series with only a few car types and heavily BOP |

The game was basically up as soon as Ratel introduced GT3 in 2006. As long as customer car BoP series are a thing, there's no going back to the way things were before. |

from the teams perspective you may be right but the spectators are the real losers
look at the 2003 season you had totally sureal scenes of VW Golf passing Ferraris and Porsches or some ancien cars like a Ferrari F40 on the grid mixing up with the newer cars GT3 category is a blessing and curse at same time (just like TCR) it ensures relative decent sized grids and relative chances but it completely kills off variaty and makes the whole sport dependent on the big manufacturers, it also kils off the "identity" of a championship since every one of them uses the same cars (not just same rules) Last edited by porsche962fan; 19 Jan 2022 at 20:08. |

What can you do though? Look at every category in motorsport. Motorsport is built on spec cars these days. I hate it just as much as you but without that you are watching single car grids because its not sustainable hence why the whole spec parts/cars have become the norm. Im sorry but its true.

oh the 90s were very fun times as well , love the more "club racing" feel of it and before 1998 the GT2 cars could actually compete with the GT1 for overall wins 1993- 2000 British GT playlist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_EG...DzyXmhThKKble4 2001 playlist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8Kj...iQpeLApr-5Wa7V 2002 playlist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cnq1...k5QeMDoqDwRPtW 2005 playlist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJH_...PgGx9y-aaLoSvF and there are some 2003-2004 races it's also interesting how in 2000 they axed GT1 then for 2003 they axed GT2 , only to axe the new GT2 (formely GT3) in 2007 and since then we are stuck with this overregulated GT3 |

Yes i agree its kinda overregulated but it has lead to large mixed grids and stable regulation for 15 years now....almost unheard of in the sportscar world. |
