Well, I hope everything/everyone comes together, I hope everyone buys in, I hope it's badass and I hope the cars lose the bunghole and gain the sleek look of a hoop! I look forward to it!!

No problem Jag....
Lotus is still in according to Marshall Pruett.
FWIW - with the signing of ???? to conquest for the Motegi race they are showing some pictures of the Formula Nippon car - very nice - more along the line of what I had hoped for in the "new look" - not perfect mind you - but nice.....
Had they chosen Swift we could have been..... Dallara has the market cornered on ugly.

Pretty vague, but it's something!
Stuck with Dan - YouTube
Keep up the info as you find it guys/girls, and get out your video, camera etc....
Here is Marshall Pruett's article on Dan's opinion on the new car so far.
AUTO RACING - INDYCAR: It
I think they way it looks now is what it will look like next year. How fast it is and how it races is the most important thing, but when I look at it, I can't help but think it's the Pontiac Aztec of race cars.
I knew I had seen the car before
