This ia a deliberate choice to keep SRO's GT3 gravy train going, and given its runaway and lasting success, I don't blame Ratel one bit.

For me (unashamedly prototypes first):
1) LMH/GTP
2) LMP2
3) GT500
4) GT3/GTD
5) LMP3 (except LMP3 - get out of GT3's way)
6) GT4
7) GT Cup

For the most part I like a mix of GTP and GTD but in IMSA I order them as:

1) GTP LMH/LMDH
2) LMP2
3) GT3/GTD
4) LMP3

Would prefer more GT3/GTD cars over LMP3
