I have been wondering if the existence of the ALMS itself is in danger - I think I heard they have been losing money in the past year or two.
The spec classes may or may not provide good racing (I haven't seen any race with them) but I don't think that's what people want to see in sportscar racing - I think people want to see big name teams up against each other. Outside GT(2) (where big name teams are duking it out), what is there that really is interesting in the ALMS? The prototype class is meant to be the premiere class but it seems to be in real trouble.
What I ask you is this: is the continued existence of the ALMS in doubt?
