Let me just say that A new Panoz P-1 will/would be great, if!
As to the 2011 rules being so clear. Sorry, they're not! We have already seen the ACO waffle on hybrids, while I would agree that the
outlines that have been set out are probably pretty firm for the standard (per se) cars. But we (IMO) should also take into account what is not been put out, in context with the current clime. The ACO is in the process of re-defining the GTs and as such the top GT homologated engines that could be allowed into P-1 are still in flux. We also know that the rules are still under evaluation by the ACO per Jean-Claude Plassart,
Here , paying attention to the last section.
