Wasn't there just a series management change recently or something?

Pretty impressive slam dunk in favour of GT Asia today with a bunch of their big teams announcing their loyalty to GT Asia over the new SRO GT Cup. interested to see what the SRO GT Cup can find in terms of support. SRO would need to find some big names in a hurry, and a lot of new teams.
Secondly, the dailysportscar article on the same topic gives a good indication of the potential grid for next year, which would match the current grid for numbers based of the mentioned entries alone. FFF Racing Team - Lamborghini Huracan GT3 FFF Racing Team - Lamborghini Huracan GT3 Absolute Racing - Bentley Continental GT3 Absolute Racing - Bentley Continental GT3 Absolute Racing - Bentley Continental GT3 Absolute Racing - Bentley Continental GT3 (possible, hints at extra cars beyong current 3) Team Phoenix Asia - Audi R8 LMS GT3 Team Phoenix Asia - Audi R8 LMS GT3 Craft Bamboo Racing - Porsche 911 GT3 R Craft Bamboo Racing - Porsche 911 GT3 R Miedecke Stone Motorsport - Aston Martin V12 Vantage GT3 Miedecke Stone Motorsport - Aston Martin V12 Vantage GT3 Plan B Motorsport - Ferrari 488 GT3 Clearwater Racing - Ferrari 488 GT3 Clearwater Racing - Ferrari 488 GT3 Without even mention of teams like BBT, Gruppe M, and Singha how didnt make a statement as part of that release. And lets not forget the current GT Cup cars will be joined potentially by GT4 cars, and there is also a AM Class added to GT3 for next year. Pretty much game on for 2017, I think it gives GT Asia a better grid great, Im not sure how the SRO GT Cup will fare, but hey if a second series can survive alongside GT Asia, we get more racing to watch, so why not!
