That is getting down to a time that is pretty hard for all 3 drivers to match in anything but a pretty quick car.
Even 130% of 2:08 is 2:46.4 which excluded 1 entry this year.
It means that the organisers are going to have to encourage more GTs, some pretty quick invitation cars or the very best of the Production cars.
Interesting to see their strategy. I hope they announce it in plenty of time for potential entrants to plan and prepare.

it get's worse than that, without the cap that was imposed, I am sure it would be down to a 2:04 or less (Simonsen has already done a 2:04 round there).
Last years prosports had issues with this too, cause a lot of arguments when an imposed lap time cap was proposed (so that the 130% time did not potentially cut the slower of the 2F cars).
