Didn't the first 935s have 1 giant turbo, and they eventually went to the twin.

I can only guess that it's a combination of things. 1 turbo's are probably handicapped when they race other cars, so it may be easier to run NA. 2 It's probably cheaper to run NA 3 turbo's are probably reserved for the highest/er levels of racing where things are more unlimited.

I think in the last 5-10 years I've seen some GT2s/turbos in the GT2 class of racing, but it's cheaper to race in GT3.
