We've been saying that on this forum for years. DPi has the same problems as LMP1, just at different scales. You have to have manufacturers to run it, and we're about to run out of manufacturers. LMP1 didn't have to have a manufacturer, but it was so insanely expensive that you needed to anyway.
You need customer cars. You need names like Lola, Reynard, Dallara to be building cars that you can stick a Judd and Gibson engine in the back of. No it isn't as sexy as an Acura or Audi badge, but it'll keep your series alive.
DPi is close to facing WEC style issues.
