 The 2012 Avon Tyres British GT Championship is split into four classes:

 GT3: cars are heavily modified versions of road going sports and supercars. With more power, more light weight parts, added aerodynamics than their road going cousins, they are also stripped of their interiors and fitted with a full roll cage, Developed by the manufactures to compete in anything up to a 24 hours race.   
 GT3b: The gt3b class is a class for the gt3 cars that don’t have the latest updates and new homologated parts, these are still heavily modified road going gt cars.
Gt4: Like GT3, the race cars are close to their road car equivalents. They have their interiors stripped out to save weight and safety enhancements are fitted. Limited, and strictly policed, modifications can be made to the suspension, engine and bodywork.The class requires less investment to both buy and run the vehicles.
