Yeah, you could just run two classes, but I think it would ultimately just turn into all factory teams. The minnows should have a lower class to consider.

Updating GT4 into a "Super GT4" certainly seems like a good idea to me, but maybe there should be something unique for that class. Jonerz proposed the idea of using the TA2 specifications, which would certainly help it stand out uniquely, and would be nicely low-cost.

So.. If any variation of GT4 was not an option, what would YOU replace GTD with should GT3/GTE convergence actually happen?
In my opinion the GTE / GT3 convergence will finally be successful, if finally the ACO concrete the GTproto / GT1 idea for the Top class in 2021, then perhaps some GTE Teams decide to hit the jump to the Top category, and in this way a GTE category has no sense.
