Really think you're going way over the top on all of this.

Regardless of P1 Evo rules, current cars can compete upto, and including, 2010. In that timeframe manufactuers will have changed their chassis at least once.

The underpinnings and engine regs are unchanged, any change would be to the bodywork only, which may ultimately require a new tub due to the wider cockpit.

All we've seen are snippets in the press, Evo regs are intended to attract manufactuers, the ACO will have been in discussions with manufactuers from day one, it's their influence that may have pushed the ACO to keep current P1 chassis, seeing as the trend is to coupes anyhow, while enouraging GM/Aston etc. with favourable production engine regs.

If DSC are correct, manufactuers have persuaded the ACO to slowly modify current cars, so both parties are happy.
