A good number of those running teams in IMSA are also running Indycar teams, with vast experience in handling and utilizing ethanol-based engines, including Ganassi racing.
Don't be surprised if you see a few wins by GM(Cadillac) and Honda(Acura), just as IMSA changes over to Ethanol-based fuel.

ALMS ran an ethanol based fuel for years, it was an option rather than fully required I believe but it was a switchgrass rather than corn based formula. So similar to the new Total product it was a waste based fuel rather than a potential foodstuff.
