I have an idea, I am looking at the car sheet and will create a new class. Lets see what I can come up with. I will show and tell later todays.

The tested cars are okay for a SRO Class. Based on WTCR lap times at Brands Hatch Indy +/- 2 seconds RaceRoom Leaderboard best times.

+/- 2 scnds is too much for a competetive league. Even 0.1-0.2 would make a big difference in a endurance race. I would suggest multiclass like all GTR3 and TCR with no doubts in the heads. I believe most people have this cars than having all.
I would be surprised you could balance these cars well. Power/ weight isn't everything! Though i know alot of 'classes' in Raceroom arnt well balanced. I would also be skeptical over running multiple classes in the same race. It just splits people up even more and you then have no one to race with. If you asked me to run 80mins on my own in ACC i would get bored easily, but have people to compare against and compete against.... The same will be even truer with 2.4hour races especially with a low turn out. Even an hour can feel like an endurance..
It is another issue to sole that split classes would cause low challanges. So, may be decided one class.
We are not ready for multiclass for R3E at SRO. We are still building R3E results system working on the 2 and 3 races per event to work proper. We are in discussion and when the time allows the developers to update the app..
Yep. and the selection is based on Class A and B drivers mostly on the open leaderboard. Some Class C was exceptions beating out class B drivers were added to survey. Only results from Get Real setting. What it's about and our class I think them 2 second is the best lap. I can add that the average differs 2 seconds with what I see with average league drivers. If you are better the average then you would be able to take a slow car and still win. The cars are there for your choosing, pick your winner.
We can do the GT3 again if you all like. I will add the missing Porsches to the GT3 class R3E GT3 (Reformed 2021).
