I'm sure the ACO will try to BOP, but it will just create a never ending whinging match between teams, just like it did between Audi running a Diesel and Toyota running a Gasoline motor......
Whenever Audi were on the back-foot they always blamed the deficit on the generous rules break the gasoline cars got from the ACO.......PMSL.......Audi didnt complain when they effectively wrote the diesel regs for themselves and handed them to the ACO.......the privateer gasoline cars couldnt hold a candle to the subsequent diesel performance.......... I subsequently worked for one of the powertrain consulting companies that designed and developed one of the V12 diesel LMP1 engines.......over 800hp and over 1400NM of torque......Jesus, gasoline engines didnt stand a chance.
and now look at BOP in IMSA.......compared to the Gibson engine, the factory teams are down the road, its become an open farce there too........even when they tried to BOP the Caddy motor, air restrictors could not limit the whopping low-torque from the 6.2L motor, now 5.5L, hence they were forced to change the gear ratios.
