and I would base it in england.

Penske is a control freak. He doesn't want an F1 team unless he can devote 24 hours a day to it. Haas in is prision so he can't do much. I think Rick Hendrick has the money to do it. Maybe Richard Childress could. But they would probably have to have GM's blessing.

that's almost funny.

You are joking, but I have good inside info that Panoz is already designing a front engine car that will be great.........

Dale Jr. and Jeff Gordon...they will not have the problem of transistion from rear engine cars to front engine (the reason that JV and JPM are having so much trouble is those nastycars do not have rear engines, so as they do a frontie, those two will have none of the adjustment problems that a scott not speed, DP or others might have......)

I'll give this brainstorm a miss.

Wrong Haas. Carl Haas is not in prison and never has been in prison.

BTW, there will be an American team when hell freezes over.

Agreed. As much as I would like to see this happen, we should have a successful American driver before any talk of an American backed team.

When British-American Racing entered F1, why they did not place an American driver on the team back then?
