When the Dome LMP2 was initiated in the 2013, no P2 coupes existed at that point (apart from the ill fated Kodewa-'Lotus' and some old Lolas lying around), it was still a full market for old recycled open tops. Now, the Onroak option did come along last year, but had Dome actually been able to get the thing ready for 2014 there could have been some chance for actual commercial supply contract. Something Dome has not been accustomed to but probably could have handed, probably. But 2015 was already too late for numerous reasons (incl Dome's own disappearing in the shadows) - even if the chassis had been good. Likewise, they never would have had any actual chance to get the spec supply contract, and the said greedy deals had likely been decided behind closed doors in French and US bunkers ages ago anyway.

Fingers crossed for the Zytek-Gibson involvement in P1
