And that is truly awesome.

Isn't this what some folks here had been calling for, namely a standard safety cell with "open season" on innovation on the rest of the car?

Yeah guys, the image being broadcasted was "squeezed" so the cars looked chubby.
I complained, but no engineers heard it.

We'll see published pics soon. Looking forward. I'm truley excited.

We wanted innovation and we're gonna see it.

Nice to hear that Dallara is manufacturing these cars in Speedway, Indiana.

Since no other manufacturers were announced to produce the add-on parts, I'm assuming that there have not been any commitments as of yet from Lola, Swift, ect on this front. Also, I'm thinking Dallara themselves will produce add-ons, and that makes me think that the complete Dallara package will probably be advantageous over any other combination. I'm hoping we will see some announcements soon for the add-on manufacturers.

Also, is there a timeline on the commitment for engine manufacturers? I was expecting that to be part of this announcement.. but I suppose I was expecting too much.

It's a chassis press conference. See what happens when you assume?

Miller put this out the second it was over.

That would be great. Hopefully that is what happens.

Unless it is only superficial body panels, then forget it.

Made in Indy, Jobs in Indy. Politicians from Indy.......Why should I care?

All in all I believe the choice is a good one. The once chassis multiple aero package is an idea I advocated years ago considering the state of US formula car racing.

nore:

as long as they take away downforce to finally make the drivers control the cars and are forced to slow down in the corners, I'll be happy. and turbos would be nice too
