blanc p GT is quite popular. Id suggest adding 30 mins to travel time. First practice is 9am and traffic to the brands can be appalling.

If you're a casual enthusiast or taking family go and see the sprint series. Different types of racing throughout the day, longest race is 1hr, easier to follow as there's no real pit strategy, Brands Hatch doesn't require much walking.

If you're more of a die-hard motorsport geek go and see the endurance series (UK round is Silverstone). Arguably the top GT3 series in the world, 50 cars stretching their legs on proper F1 circuits, waaaay more overtaking, more scope for pit strategy. 3hr races do start to drag on though if you're spectating...

Another place to see GT3 cars would be British GT. Lots of UK dates however mostly full of the less-extreme GT4 cars nowadays (Cayman, V8 Vantage, 570s, Ginetta G55 etc) and again they're not exactly in their element on slower narrower national circuits.
