Its really hard to tell what is fair in the GT300 rules (but then again, they just give the winners some ballast before the next race). Did you guys see the list of cars that run in the same class as the BRZ?
BMW Z4 GT3
McLaren MP4-12C GT3
Nissan GT-R GT3
Ferrari 458 GT3
Porsche 911 GT3 R
Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3
Honda CR-Z
Toyota Prius
Aston Martin V12 Vantage GT3
Gallardo GT3
Callaway Corvette Z06R GT3
Thats a lot of de-tuning to get that 300 HP figure! GT300 has really changed over the years, I remember it being dominated by Japanese cars and there would be an oddball Porsche in there somewhere. I think teams are realizing its cheaper to detune an exotic then build up a race car starting with a bare roof.
Oh btw, the BRZ got 5th place in the actual race, a SLS won.
