That looks like the oval package they revealed at Indy. I would assume we'll see the other version of bodywork at MO next week. I can't wait to see and hear the new car on track, but i'll be even more excited when we see and hear the Chevy and Judd engines on track as well. I really miss hearing the different engine notes from indycars.
It's been a long time since any of the MFG's were willing to sell their designs outright for independent builders to service without some pretty tight control.
I wonder of the Honda engine has anything in common with the TT V6 Honda developed for the ALMS?HINCHTOWN!!

We've heard plenty of V6 Turbo engines.
So the IRL is going to manage the competition to ensure equal engines........great......pretty much what I expect from these guys.

Well, .. duh, Brain Fart.... I wasn't thinking about the pre IRL Buick handgrenades and the old indy lights...... senility 1, me......0. My neighbor even owns one... He has an ex-menards engine. I helped him pull it out of his garage and install it in one of the three Grand nationals he has. IIRC, it's blown.

The Dallara protoype had it's first day of testing at Mid-Ohio. The couple of pictures they have in the article looks like the car they were showing at Indy.
