Hoop...any idea on a lap time for LB? Are the Dallara's slower or faster than the Dp-01's? I figure they will be a hair slower but not radically so.....
As for my picks...well I didn't get to watch St. Pete's so I will just say I am guessing Dixon and Briscoe fighting for the win with Power lurking in the weeds waiting for the two of them to take each other out..."Water for my horses, beer for my men and mud for my turtle".

69.4 is my guess about 2-3 seconds a lap slower than the DP01....

The one they did for St. Pete was cool too. Glad to see these guys pulling out the stops. As I said earlier, when I first heard they would be the primary broadcaster I was skeptical at best. But now, I am VERY impressed with the job they are doing and the crosss promotion on other non-Comcast cable channels.

Yea, they really are doing a good job of the virtual laps. Are they using that iRacing program to produce those laps or some other program? That would be a lot of digital work for them to do simply for one lap around each track.

At Edmonton last season the fastest Dallara's were equal to the bottom third of the DP-01 field in 2007, 2-3 secs off the front of the field. I don't mind the slight difference in pace as much as the fact that the Dallaras just look ungainly on the street circuits. Something needs to be done about that for the new car, besides just in the engine department. The car is so heavily engineered for the ovals with regards to speed, aero, and safety that it's a borderline embarassment on some of these street circuits. There have been a ton of expensive parts made for the Dallara in the last 3-5 years that has made it acceptable as far as performance, but it still looks terrible and is very difficult to make quick moves and passes without crashing.
