Pretty cool. The most competition up front the better. I somewhat wish they would change the rules in the top format so the entries have to start over. Audi is just to dominant at the current setup. I have no idea what advantage Porsche thinks they have but we will see. Just relying on BOP sucks. There is no likeness to actual road cars so I don't see any drawback to leveling the field so to speak. Other than Audi may throw a fit and threaten to leave.
P1 might be interesting next year, hopefully Toyota finally finds its form, Porsche is back in prototypes, Rebellion is going to have quasi-factory support from Toyota, and I wouldn't be surprised to see Pickett Racing (aka Muscle Milk) jump ship from USCR to WEC. Dyson looks like they'll have a P2 car in USCR but part of me wants them to stay in P1 and go to the WEC. anyway, I hope Pescarolo can put together a team for next year, you have to admire his tenacity.
