I get this, but that's a different thing. What are we arguing now?

In an ideal world you would have that, but we don't have that and the race organisers have chosen a different pragmatic route to still maintain the important things that make endurance racing what it is - variety.

You seem to be arguing that this is only a success if it is perfect and nose to tail for 24 hours. And then that we shouldn't have it at all.

I would have suggested LMP racing in both WEC and IMSA take on LMP2 rules, just with multiple 4.0 V8 engines and multiple chassis (Ferrari, Toyota etc). So any privateer can buy the homologated works engines and works chassis for a low fixed price. By folding the two classes together, you could have a single LMP class too.

If that means 40x Ferrari-Ferrari instead of 25x Oreca-Gibson, that is totally fine... It would still deliver an incredible race IMO.
They've decide to avoid this end conclusion. Fine. There are other areas of the sport you can see that. So we're groovy.
