    New INDY CAR 2012 Car

    Earlier this month, Dan Wheldon took the new IZOD series car for a spin at Mid-Ohio. Here are a few pics of the new machine--what do you think??

      That was my first impression also Chia. In the interview(posted on iRacing) after the practice, Dan said the car is a lot lighter, but has a lot more HP....

        I think this is a step in the right direction for Indy Car.
        They had a show car at the Milwaukee Mile when I went there for the race. Definitely looks alot like an F1 car... which IMO is a good thing.

        Most importantly, I hope this car produces good racing something Indy Car has been lacking lately especially on the road courses.

          Agreed. I wish they would've stuck with ovals exclusively, but perhaps this car will make for better road course racing. I do like the new look though.

            I like road course racing... its just the Indy Car races have been pretty boring. I found myself turning them off even if theyre on DVR.

                looks very boxy and wide to me. Also, can we get a petition to ban those huge front wings on grounds they are ugly? At least there's no shark fin.

                  Great photos, there is small wish for me to be inside an F1 car and I’m a great fan of fun.
