GTE is headed for a world of hurt as well... Having the ability to run these cars at LM is a good thing and certainly helps with viability, but that didn't save GT1 either...

With a cost-cap in LMP2 I can see interest gravitating towards that once the current GTE-boom ends, possibly with a view towards getting rather prototype heavy grids eventually, not completeyl without GT-cars, but with them making up only 30 or so percent of the field.

And that's where the GTE-Am idea really fails hard - with the secondary GT-class depending on the primary class for car supply, there's no way it'll develop into something that is viable as a headline class on its own some years down the road.
