Info from the Acura/HPD thread does suggest that an ARX-03 may end up in the ALMS next year. Unless a new team is coming in, Cytosport may very well be the best candidate.
And as far as Pickett not being able to buy an Audi for his team, I think he should take it up with Audi of America, who refuse to fund a LMP1 program in the ALMS, in spite of ramping up their advertising in recent ALMS rounds for the televised races, which probably has more to do with advertising their participation in PLM than anything thing else.
However, Audi AG is culpable too for no R15s/R18s in the ALMS, as they pleaded with the FIA and ACO for the ILMC/WEC, and got their wish this year, hence the WEC is basically Audi's "baby" that they fought for like Bella Swan did for Renesmee in Breaking Dawn. After fighting for that for nearly a decade as it's major proponent, does one think that Audi isn't gonna want to spend most of their own motorsports budget for sportscars on it and leave support of the ALMS/LMS to the importers?
