A big difference between the ALMS and LMES is the number and length of races in the season, but that's been well-travelled (beaten?) already. I couldn't say if the possibility of additional paying drivers for longer races really would help or not; funding might not be the problem. One thought is that the longer races might introduce a bit more randomness to the results which could be encouraging to some teams.
Another thought is that the ALMS could adopt a position of "if it ain't for sale it ain't invited", but would that produce a mass exodus and fan revolt instead of more interest?
