Certainly mimicking NASCAR or F1 is the wrong medicine for the wrong problem. Both of those series are in radically different commercial places; Indycar is in limbo and needs solutions to pull it out of that limbo. Making the cars look strong and racey will claw some of that back. I think under temperate leadership (they don't even have that) they could claw some of the exposure to the level that the ALMS has been receiving but to go beyond that? No. The NASCAR collossus blocks the way for the indefinite future.
