Slightly unrelated, but NFL player Reggie Wayne appears at practice in an Indycar.

Too funny to not post here. Clint Bowyer making a fool of himself.(yes its indycar related)

Honda expects big differences between the aero kits which were finally getting next year:
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/115316

I'd actually totally forgot about the aero kits, I just hope they don't screw up the racing which has been very good with the standard Dallara package.

Yeaa, that's my biggest worry about them.

Footage from the 1st test of the new Indy Lights car:

I don't remember or it was never spoken of, but did Rahal just not seek to renew with Midas for the sake of the National Guard.

I'm pretty sure there was a change in leadership at NTB which didn't like the idea of spending that money on an IndyCar program.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

They're set to become a multi-car team. Which means 2 cars. Lol at the journalism.

As long as it safeguards Newgarden then I'm fine with that.

Yeaa but both have thought about adding second cars outside of Indy so perhaps it'll mean they could run three cars full time.

3x TBKL rFactor Hillclimb champion

2 races to go with 159 points available. Closest non-Penske drivers are 92 (Pagenaud), 108 (RHR) and 130 (Dixon) points behind Power. Given the Penske team and drivers unique knack of squandering titles over the past few years I'm trying to come up with new and unusual ways that Power and / or Helio will choke in the final two rounds.

Perhaps Power's cream-puff incident will turn into an inner-ear infection and he'll be forced to sit out Sonoma and Fontana? Perhaps Helio will have fall at home, caused by tripping over his dancing shoes? Someone help me here.

Indycar put out an image showing what aero kit parts teams will be able to develop through 2015:

Can't take off the roll hoop then? Ah well

I have a hard time imagining how that will affect the look of the cars....will have to wait for the first testing pics.

Hmm thats a lot more than in F1...

It least the carbashians in front of the rear wheels could be gone. That's the uglyest spot of the car by far! I annoys me much more than the airbox...which I would like to get rid of as well, just for the record.

Those won't be gone as they are an integral part of the car's safety.

Penske is one of the only teams that actually could develop a car themselves. Montoya should be in a good position for next year.

Maybe not the most succesfull one, just one of the better looking one.

I doubt it. He's too fat and consistently the slowest of the Penske drivers.
