I wouldn't say they'd no longer be ALMS rounds. GT would still score points, GTC would still score points. Heck, ACO GT1 cars would probably be welcome (if there is a GT1). IMSA would still sanction the event, but the prototype ranks would probably be jumbled a bit.
I'd like to see LMP get a name-change so that when European teams want to run in LMP1 and LMP2 configuration the IMSA/ALMS cars would be in another class, scoring points to their championship, and then a larger field overall looking for a Sebring victory - but that is just me. Similar to allowing Group C cars to enter Daytona against GTPs back in the day. LMP, LMP1, and LMP2 isn't too confusing a class structure at Sebring next year, is it?
