Hammerwerfer should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Diversity is the word you were looking for there. I agree. It was great seeing the real GT cars out there with the prototypes And the line between GT and Touring is rather blurred in this day and age as the homologation rules seem to change or be ignored in amny series.

IMSA has never differentiated between the BMW and Porsche products, going back to the old 3.0 CSL V 911 battles. Technically a Touring v GT battle but really competing on an equal footing.

At one point, I don't seem to remember exactly where, Porsche even had the 911 homolgated or accepted as a touring car...

If BMW builds a run of cars like Porsches GT3, and the new M3 CSL seems a step in that direction, then why should they not be classified with the 911s?
