AndrewF31 should be qualifying in the top 5 on the gridAndrewF31 should be qualifying in the top 5 on the grid
"LMP1 and LMP2 cars will compete as a single LMP class in 2010 with exception of the endurance classics - the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring and Petit Le Mans Powered by MAZDA6 - that will continue to adhere to the ACO technical rules for LMP1 and LMP2. Among the LMP race cars eligible worldwide will be the Acura ARX-02a, Acura ARX-01b, Ginetta-Zytek 09HS (hybrid), Lola B09/86 Mazda, Lola B06/10, Radical SR9, Porsche RS Spyder, Audi R15 TDI, Peugeot 908, Aston Martin Lola and Pescarolo."

How is this gonna pan out? Imagine if an LMP2 from Europe wants to come race Sebring. We don't know how they're going to translate the single LMP class for ALMS but assuming, in this case, that the P2s receive an 'upgrade', would they have to remove the upgrades for Sebring and Petit Le Mans? Or else the P2 car coming from Europe will be at a disadvantage.
