    I'm 30, and I voted for like the concept and dislike the car, but my dislike is fairly mild. There are some things about it I like, and other I might grow to like over time. The current Dallara has grown on me over time, too.

    Ditto, except I'm 25 (very soon to be 26)
    Some fans claim one series or another runs "real race cars." What's everybody else running, fake race cars? :confused:

    The Delta Wing makes Indycar Racing look even more fringe than it is now.

    In order to operate a successful racing venture, you must appeal to the public with chassis aesthetics that are relateable. This is why the general public could really care less about land-speed record racing, or those f1 racing boats.

    The Public has a pre-conceived notion of what Indycar racing is- Open Wheeled, front and rear wings, side pods, roll cage; Any dramatic bastardization is only going to confuse/turn off fans.

    It makes me so sad that we will probably never have an updated version of a classic lola or reynard run at Indy.

    It makes me sad/angry that Indycar racing will not be a part of my life once this delta wing is put into action, It makes me angry that I'm going to have to refer to myself as a F1 or ALMS fan instead of an Indycar fan.
