    My guess is its the car that was on display last May.

    Anyone have any ideas what Marco's RC Cola car will look like?

    AA is testing at PBIR this coming weekend. We should get to see at least one of their liveries then. The same for HVM, although that one may just be a generic Lotus car as it's Lotus' first test, and not necessarily a team test.

    It'll be hard to see with so many cars in front of it.

    Yeah that makes sense, there were so many cars in front of him at the checkered flag at Iowa right? Hope you dont plan on seeing Grahams car either since he finished behind him in points and didnt win a race or need I big up everyones favorite Simona, the fact is he finished 8th in points and should have finished higher than that, but if you cant see the car who finished 8th whats the point of being a sponsor in this series

    Hurco CNC? That would be a brand new sponsor for the series in general, let alone D&RR. Wonder who brought them on board.

    hurco was a technology partner with drr last year. hurco put 2 huge machines in their shop and took potential customers to drr to see the machines in action. was announced the same time that drr said they were expanding their building.

    They actually had Hurco last year, even did a show car up:



    I'm liking that Lotus car, especially how the gold lines go up and over the fender.

    Whoa, nice find nzirl!!! Those gold stripes look a ton more thick than on Michael's rendering. Hmm...

    I wished they raced that, not half bad looking.

    I like a green splash coming from the rear of the car. Pretty neat. I think aowzone pointed this out but some sponsors were not keen on having black and gold so the teams honored the sponsors requests and stuck with their colors?

    Just HVM, IIRC. For some reason, a Nuclear Energy group doesn't want to be black...

    Cool, nice view from the Panther Racing site...



    Peters Motorsports Designs: www.petersmotorsports.com

    I really think the 2012 Dallara is more sponsor friendly than the 2003-2011 Dallara, but still - so many curved surfaces and odd shapes.
    I think Michael designed this about as well as possible for Panther. It's perfectly branded for National Guard and he maximized the space allotted, but when you compare the readability on a 2012 Dallara versus a 2012 NASCAR Impala... it's tough for INDYCAR...



    I also find it curious that Chevrolet is allowing the NASCAR teams to use the "outline" Chevy bowtie but has updated their INDYCAR program to the new bowtie. The 2012 renders are hitting about daily for NASCAR and still they all use the outline...

    The new Dallara features way too much "wasted space". I never thought I would miss the last Dallara & actually find it better looking than the new car

    Those are neat and all on the National Gaurd car, but they are still using the wrong undertray. Where is the sponsor blocker?

    it'll get used. just is going to take lots of copycat from other teams as good ideas get presented!

    These images were produced several weeks ago before that under tray was in existence.

    I'll post an image with it on the car tonight

    edit -- also, no reason it couldn't be wrapped in camo too and blend right in...

    Here's the fin, since the lack of it has become such a controversy! Really not all that bad, IMO, especially on this car.
