Also, many say sportscar racing is 'struggling' due to the economic situation, but it is my belief the current downturn in manufactuer interest is souley down to the new 2004 regualtions delaying sportscar projects, the restructuring of sportscar racing in Europe (High profile LMT replacing the FIA SCC) and the fact that manufactuers in the late 90s were obsesed with F1 at the expense of other racing categories. They now realise F1 cannot cater for all of there marketing needs and in some cases damages there reputaions (Jaguar, Honda, Toyota). There are now indications of Ford (Aston Martin, Ford GT) returning to sportscars along with Toyota (Sard project).
