pink69 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
GNM move to FIA too

British GT champions elect GNM are looking to move to the FIA GT championship next season, depending on Saleen building the required 25 road cars. Failing that, the team will fly to America to compete in the ALMS. Another blow to the British series which is undergoing a major overhaul next season. The series will give penalties to any GTS spec cars to put them on a level par with the GTO cars. There will also be different length races, rangeing from 45 minutes to 3 hours. The Spa race could also return to the calendar.

i actually hope the GNM saleens make their way to the USA for a full 2-3 car assult! even though, i would also like to see them in the FIA GT.. maybe, with enough funding, GNM can have 2 cars in FIA GT and 2 in alms (since they have 4 cars)

three hour races for British GTs will be cool, so long as there's a good number of cars

I'm a little disappointed by the new rules, mainly because I'd love to see more powerful and bigger cars competing, But if its for the good of the series then I guess it needs to be done....its a shame though.

The British series should have used the same rules as the FIA GT series, it would make more sense.

Lets hope GNM and Saleen appear in the FIA GT series next year.
