I mean the word racing is in your name, you should know these things...

Granted its not track testing in 120 degree weather, but it sure is a little better than simply doing dyno runs. (not a dig at gtm, I dont know what they are doing for testing)
The bold statement is where it is at, nothing for/against either company as I am sitting back, but track testing does not always mean 120° temperatures on X or Y track. It means, beating the living cr*p out of the car on a track to provide good results, be it cold or hot, and finding points that are weak or need better tuning.
