It's GREAT to see some real competition in GT2. We can add Jaguar and possibly Audi to this group too...

I think Lou will be at Petit LeMans... but his Riley & Scott car is for sale.GM/Corvette wouldn't allow Lou to have the Michelin tires so he won't be competitive. Lots of "Politics" here that I don't want to go into.
Less rear wing, smaller front spliter, non louver fenders and starting with a "stock chassis" all reduces down-force on the GT2.Bryan's right, Johnny O' says the GT2 slides more, needs more "driver imput", ergo... more fun to drive.
I think ALMS forced a reduction in the use of electronic nannies too.
That, and the down-force on the GT1's, limited the driver's imput.
