Personally, who is driving is much the least interesting factor of a race to me. I look for car variety and interesting tracks. Drivers barely figure in the equation. I fully recognise that this is not the view of many (probably the majority) here.

Edited to add: I would remove the separate class for Ams though, along with the requirement to have year-old cars. If your rich hedge-fund manager wants to buy a GTE and race, that's fine, but I wouldn't indulge him with a separate class. I dislike "everyone gets a prize" racing.
Proton ended up with 4 cars in GTE-Am, AF Corse at least 3.

Also the Ford and Porsche efforts last year were essentially run by different teams (Ganassi & Multimatic/George HC, CORE & Manthey)
