the gt500 class though, is increasingly becoming a spec class by virtue of the massive spending by nissan, honda, and toyota on their programs (they've priced out any privateer entrants with different cars); and the new rules requiring 3.4 litre v8s (the same motors as formula nippon) have just reinforced that...
Talking about variety, looks like GT300 is getting more interesting to watch, whereas GT500 is getting more like present day DTM which is rather on the boring side..
