A private team could easily build a car that could win - they just need to through enough money at. Just look at Red Bull in F1.
The current crop of privateers in WEC, good as they are, are not in that league - they are still using off the shelf cars built for commercial profit.
If WEC and FIA raise the profile then maybe more of the worlds billionaires will take an interest. At the moment there is no one willing to do it - maybe as more manufacturers come in then more wealthy privateers will follow!
