With all these new manufactures looking at joining WEC/IMSA I kinda wanna see a race that is just the prototypes racing. Like Imagine Le Mans but with 30+ Hypercars/GTPs battling for the win.
Mercedes-AMG Eyeing Top Class Prototype Entry #WEC
DSC is now confident to report that Mercedes-AMG has, for some time, been formally evaluating a potential near-future entry in the Hypercar and/or GTP classes with an LMDh prototype. Multiple industry sources have indicated that the German OEM has been in talks with key suppliers and rule-makers and, whilst a formal acknowledgement of a programme
The W1 looks like if Frank Stephenson gave into every destructive thought when designing the P1. Similar silhouette, but another vent here, another strake there, some exposed carbon fiber here, here, and here. I’m sure they’ll say it’s functional, but many track hypercars are so who cares?
Films like 'Megalopolis' please me in that I want to imagine, if I were a gazillionaire whose every whim no one could gainsay, would be the kind of thing I'd spend my bazillions on instead of mundane shit like designer bags and hypercars. Just raw ego on a titanic scale. At least it's not boring.

I'm not expecting everyone to adhere to my own weird semantics, but those aren't hypercars. They might not even be supercars!, but rather their own thing: GT1 Road Cars, or roadgoing race cars, or homologation specials
How about the road versions and derivations of LeMans cars? GT1 Straßenversion, CLK-GTR, etc. Clearly more than supercars but less than hypercars? How about the MC-12? Certainly the ultimate evolution of the Enzo classifies?
fun fact: there have only ever been three ""Hypercars,"" a term that was invented in the early-2010s and does not apply to cars made earlier than that. Any car since then that costs $3 million dollars is just a really expensive car targeted at people who love wage theft hope this clears things up
