After a couple issues this year, I’d probably add some notes on guide flag limitations, if there are any, based on the host tracks.

Reviewing the list of allowed models for next year I was wondering if anyone has the specs on these models. That would be wheelbase, width excluding mirrors, overall length and if possible length from rear axle to enter point of guide flag? I know in some of Harry’s great reviews he includes that data
Many thanks

This year I am the only one who enter a LMP. Thinking about only the GT cars for next year.
