Can't really say that these days. The RS Spyder has a 2900 mm (114+") wheelbase but is doing just fine in ALMS...Wheelbase now has a lot to do with the overhang regulations and has become a method by which the rear wing can be moved away from the airflow disruptions of the roll over/cockpit area. Though it also allows a maximising of the underfloor area because at a 2900 mm WB, adding the 1000 mm max from and 750 mm max rear gives you the max car length. It's my understanding that the RS is using the maximum front and rear overhangs.
