There is/was a perfectly usable class for privateers to use. It’s LMP2. If they want privateers back then being LMP2 back into play.

Akrapovic understands that the reality is that TenTenths editor witnessed an exclusive story from Sportscar 365 that a Ford DPi from a unnamed Romanian manufacturer is due to be announced soon. L-Sep.
Mazda may not be able to support prototype customers, but they have lots of experience providing services to Miata owners around the world. Also, the prototype supplier and support would come from Multimatic and they are probably up for it.
