I dont think you'll ever see F3 cars at any price racing seriously on an oval - far to delicate and the engine attrition would be huge - look what happened to Joey Foster too

Sorry Peter but thats just bunk! I was watching a F3 oval race just a fortnight ago at Eurospeedway - fantastic racing, crowd loved it, great event. If you look at Joey's wreck the car doesn't look too bad I think it was just really bad luck. First real injury in 2 years of F3 oval races
Re engine attrition - not an issue at all NBE engineers said they really didn't struggle at all. For more on F3 oval racing see Racecar Eng. November issue

New cars are expensive - F3 exists and is successful so why change.
