I've also been having a good look at the F3 tubs and nose system and they really aren't designed at all for running into walls.
But there is an alternative on the go with a fully oval crash tested tub, over 400bhp and around 200 straight line speed - should be fun - oh - and the drivers will get paid.......
Yes, but where is it? Months, or years, of promises and still nothing. Wouldn't it be easier and cheaper to buy a load of ex IRL and/ or Champcars (now that they are changing the chassis) and run those at Rockingham and Lausitzring, as well as a few road courses. "Euro Champcar" anyone?
