DBA/Zytek Question

I was reading the Zytek write up on Mulsanne's Corner and noticed something interesting.

http://www.mulsannescorner.com/rey02s.html

Mike notes that the car was successfully crash tested for both LMP675 and LMP900 spec and could be run in either configuration.

My question is has anyone looked into this, or has this car ever been run as an LMP900?

I wonder if this would be worth while. Perhaps as an LMP900 it could be "beefed" up a bit and made more reliable and maybe run a larger engine. If you look at the car's specs it is definitely big for a LMP675. In fact last year at Le Mans it weighed in at 763kgs. So it's not even making use of its full weight advantage in LMP675 spec! Your thoughts?
