Not much variety, had hoped to see at least one Aston/Porsche.

times change...
no more a 458 army, now it's up to huracan. Honestly I don't expect to see C7 gt3 out of callaway team, and is a shame that there isn't any work-official team for the new 991 GT3R |

Really disappointing not to see more than one Porsche. Time was the 911 was the workhorse of GT racing. It would be good to see the Callaway C7 at some point - really good-looking car.

I was hoping we would see a little more of the GT3 "unicorns" with the fields becoming very "same-y" over the last few years. I thought maybe some teams would look at a car like the Viper and see it as a way to stand out from the field, or likewise with a Caddy (if GM would sell some anyway ). |

Totally agree Accident, my comment was regarding Callaway suggesting they themselves are looking at taking on single races here and there in several euro series to show off the car.
As much as I think GT3 will always be dominated by the big 4, I see no reason why a Callaway car or similar can't be appealing to a customer team. I guess Audi Merc Ferrari etc just offer fair superior customer support which brings a lot to the package. |

Here's an updated list of both categories including many new additions.
Notably my endurance list is higher than the Blancpain Entry list so I can assume either a number of cars aren't attending the test or previously announced programmes aren't going to happen. Notably the two car MRS GT McLaren programme isn't announced on the entry list to the test, so I wonder if Garage 59 has consumed those cars and the MRS programme won't happen. Also, AKKA ASP and HTP are showing 2 cars each on the test list when they had previously announced three, may just be for the test, or a scale back |

Plus, some teams have not received their new cars yet (or have, but very recent) - which meant no time to prepare, e.g. Ferrari teams. |

Is Attempto's Porsche an old or new one? I assume old, S365 suggests new.
