but how would you balance the old cars with the new ones? If teams spend a lot of money buying a new car, how would they react if some old proto is almost as good as or even better (because there needs to be some sort of balance between "grandfathered" and current cars. But if the old car is off the pace, no one will use it). On the other hand, if the ALMS wont get a few (dozen) more protos in the next few years, maybe it would be a good idea to let some older lmps race.
