The ALMS hasn't had season long diesel competition since 2008 and IMSA ensured they were far from dominant.

Since, the series has operated an open door policy allowing everything from Dyson's hybrid P1/P2 to unhomolgated GT's. The series is wide open for a manufactuer or pro team to clean up in P1 and an open goal in P2.

ALMS entrants only incentive for equivalency is if they are competing against diesel competion, that would likely only happen if ACO regs were in place.
