Whilst I agree with a lot of your sentiment and the value of the ALMS in the recent history of Le Man is pretty big, to say the level is unprecedented is a little far fetched. The status of Le Mans as a global event including and especially in the states was at its height in the 60's.
If you haven't read the book 'Go like hell' I suggest you do as it is a great read
