I would use the GP in place of the 2 row and cut the amount of crystal malt in half. Just me.

I would think that carapils is doing nothing for you, I would drop it. What is the batch size? Honey malt is also strong stuff, maybe a bit less of that.

I'd brew it, all looks fine to me. I'd mash it at 49 for 90 and let it rip.

I would guess that to be in the realm of Barleywine. If I what you did for bitterness but that recipe looks malty and delicious.
