fangio should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Ratel sees that in the future the cost of GT racing must come down.
There may be a new class (GT3) in GT racing for "Cup" cars like the Porsche Supercup, the Ferrari F430 Challenge, the Aston DBRS9, etc.

Slightly tuned engines that will last a season, cheaper gearboxes, etc.

Each car manufacturer in the series will enter 5 or 6 cars for a 30 car grid.
May be even more spectacular than the FIA GT!!

This is a class that could also work for National Championships where the running costs for GT1 and GT2 cars are much higher. If they are all running 6 seconds slower but close together the racing will be just as good.
