I agree. The LMS survived perfectly well this year without any manufacturer entries (or at least as well as could be expected with the ACO's poor idea of decent media coverage). I don't see why a new cup aimed primarily at manufacturers, which only really interrupts the end of the LMS season for the privateers, will do too much damage.

A reduction to four hours would keep the endurance feel and also help privateers with little money, wouldn't it? Wouldn't save much, granted, but if its enough...
