Provisional entry list for Donington now back down to 19...

12x LMP2
02x LMPC
02x LMGTE-PRO
03x LMGTE-AM
00x GTC/GT3

Bit of "news" about the inevitable performance balancing in GT3 as well:

Quote:
-- Their level of performance has been adjusted by the ACO through technical solutions (minimum weight, restrictor diameter and tank capacity) with the aim of maintaining a level playing field in the categories already entered, in particular the LM GTE Ams (the GTCs are slower than the GTE Ams). Accepted GT3 vehicles must comply with their 2012 FIA-approved homologated form on the one hand and with the ACO adjustments on the other.
Also apparently Ginetta G55 Cup cars are now eglible, along with previously announced Porkie 911 Cup / F430 Challenge / Lotus Evora GT4. In theory that creates a very messy situation, if for some reason teams suddenly got interested about this category you could not only have FIA GT3 cars all performance balanced together (which itself creates a mess), but also Ginettas, GT4 Evoras and others also mixing it up in the same class - which would require even further tweaking. ACO is lucky that no one's interested atm...
