Well, it's been done before - in 2003 British GT had a 1,000km round at Spa which was joined with the FIA Sportscar Championship. Trouble is, LMS and FIA GT having a joined round at Spa... they'd have to keep GT3 in a separate race, there may not be a G2 class, and entries for each class would be strictly limited - I don't know the maximum number of cars Spa can field on it's grids.

Still, nice idea though.

Personally I think the LMS should stick to Europe - leave Australia and China to the new Japanese series, and keep ALMS in America. Bring them all together maybe 2 or 3 times a year (once in each "region") - Sebring, Le Mans, and some new race in Asia (maybe Suzuka, Sepang or Bathurst..?). Again, it's a question of money and promotion as to weather this works or not.
