Sadly, it seems that Oreca just built a better mouse trap. They got things right when the current LMP2 regs were introduced. Car's great at Le Mans, works just about as well everywhere else, works well as the Acrua ARX-05 DPI and forms the basis for the Rebellion R13 (it should be noted that though the BR1 LMP1 and the P217 are built by Dallara, they're not directly related like the Oreca 07 and the R13 are).
Also, like the Porsche 956/962, the 07 has strength in numbers in the ELMS and the WEC. I don't see that changing much until the next rules cycle or BOP gets introduced into LMP2 (which the point of the regs is to minimize the presence of BOP).
