The Indy Racing League is planning on having a new chassis design by 2012. They have been talking to Dallara, Delta Wing, Lola, and Swift. They are looking at a chassis that is more cost efficient, more sponsor logo area, lighter, racier, and made in the USA, particularly Indiana.

Here are 3 concept chassis pictures. I personally like Concept 1 or 2. 1 being my favorite.

Picture 1 is Dallara right?

To me especially picture 3 looks like LPM cars from Le Mans Smiley

These are all actually Dallara concept cars. Concept 1 resembling the current Dallara the most.

Ok, seriously. How could even someone at that company think that car was a good idea? They need to sack their entire staff.

I SWEAR this is the most ugly thing EVER to race, who projected this is probably addicted to a lot of drugs is not possible

Looks like something more suited to Bonneville than Indy.
