Because the top IMSA teams don't have legal cars. If you invite them and they have a class to run in, there's more chance of teams showing up. And if they don't then fine - it doesn't actually matter.

It's not inviting a new class, it's just reviving the idea of having an IMSA based class. Something which was very common in the 80s and 90s. That way they can turn up, race without modifying their cars (or leasing new ones), and without interfering with the WEC Championship battles.

Not only is it not hard, it's a solution that's been used many times before.
