Panoz Champ Car











Won't race until 2007 though, so it will probably change by then.
It takes a lot of cues from current F-1 cars.

It's great to see an American company expanding in open wheel racing.

The best news is weight is reduced by 165 pounds(1400 versus current 1565) and H.P. on the Cosworth upped to 775(from 750) In addition the car is sleeker and less in width. It all adds up to a huge improvement in the racing with the driver skills more important than ever.

Oh yeah, on board starters so we won't see drivers needing a tow when they stall on the track, less yellows and more racing!!!!!!!!!

Champ Car is BACK

Hey F-C, I hope Philly gets the race next year. Fans there need to let the city know they WANT it!!

I hope Philly gets a race next year. Although I'm moving to NYC soon, I'll definitely make the trip to a Philly GP.

Cool!

Champ Car needs a race on the eastern seaboard.
