For me a Corvette LMH would be much better than a Cadillac LMDh.
If Peugeot can race a car without a rear wing, I guess a new Corvette DP could be very competitive.
That what I thought they'd do. There are very few places outside America where you can even buy a Cadillac, grey import aside.

But it looks like for GM IMSA comes first (also 2nd, 3rd etc.). And they want to promote Cadillac as a high-tech and sporty (for whatever reason) luxury brand in America. So it's a matter brining to Le Mans what they'll have, instead of tailoring their whole programme(s) for WEC.

Cause they're trying build the brand globally and create more products.

And Caddy was always known as the car for slow old people in Florida. And for a long time they were mobile easy chairs that barely moved and always broke

Could they possibly run the same car as a Caddy stateside and a Vette abroad?
