My bad for mentioning "Hurricane" at 3:53 and 5:15 when I meant Lamborghini Huracan. Just a heads-up, "Huracan" means "Hurricane" in Spanish, and they sound super similar.
The title is misleading. At least to me. Because I was expecting an explanation of why Group GT3 regulations became so widely used in different championship around the world like in the WEC, IMSA or DTM with the title "How GT3 World Become So Popular?". The title "How GT World Challenge Europe Become So Popular?" Would have been better.
I get what you’re saying-it totally makes sense. Plus, I think you nailed it with a way better title that fits the doc perfectly. I appreciate the help & feedback!
Sportscars have always been my first love in motorsports. Beautiful cars that sound great racing on well known road courses. There are a different sanctioning bodies overseeing various races. Yet that doesn't seem to be a problem. SRO (which now includes ICGT), International GT Open and IMSA all host some great races. Le Mans 24 is still the grand daddy of them all with the Spa24 and Bathurst 12 putting up good numbers in terms of sponsors and fans. British GT had a great season. Car makes come and go while a solid core of regulars keep the sport healthy. SRO's appearance on TH-cam makes online attendance a piece of cake! It has also been free with ads but I would support a subscription model as well. The racing IMO, is that good. GT America has been a bit disappointing but the rise of GT Asia has offset that a bit for me. There are other elements to the racing that can be highlighted. For now, I'll just say that SRO has nailed down the fundamentals of good motorsports. Write a good set of rules and keep the gimmicks to a minimum. Race at well known tracks. I'd prefer staying off the streets. But I'm not the person in charge of the check book. One of the fundamentals of a healthy sport is staying solvent and growing. This is an excellent video. You managed to sum up the GT3 end of sportscar racing in about 11 minutes. Nice.
The main factors for GT3 racing's success are not even directly related to the success of GTWC. It's within the class-format itsself: Road-car based racing machines, which aren't too expensive for the teams, but profitable for the manufacturers, since it's mostly customer racing. GT3 cars are also more approachable for non-professional drivers than let's say prototypes or open wheelers. And then there is the most important part of it, BoP, which basically turned GT racing into a multi-manufacturer racing format, that's about as equal as any spec series (most of the time). I would say GTWC became so popular because the GT3 regulations were so well thought through in the first place. GTWC's success is a result, not the cause of GT3's rising popularity.

And the Lambo GT3 Evo2 debuted in 2023 not 2021. Audi Evo II in 2022.

@@christheradarGT3’s history would definitely make for an interesting video. And one about other SRO championships? Yeah, I’d watch that.
The project car music at the start brings back memories

You're totally wrong. Just say you’re not into GT3 instead of all that nonsense. 🤷🏾♂️
