You're a current Mercedes team, and you could use any of the the 3 companies, Honda, Ford or Toyota. What would you do??

Hmmmm... any of these engines would be a good fit, but I think either Ford or Honda would be my choice. The only thing I hold against the Toyota is reliability, and it is very close to the other two now.

In a final decision I think Honda would be my choice for overall best engine for all tracks. Honda seems to be able to build the flexible powerplant in CART at this time.

I think i rather think in the future, and toyota has a big one, but it will be very risky though. Then if you´re asking for results and reliability, Honda is must have, no doubt, so is up to them,but i think pac west is going to honda.

Honda. No doubt about it. The three most fearsome words in racing: "Powered by Honda."

(Besides, "Look out, Paul!

)

Followed by the 2 words "It's Michael"

Hmmm, i thought at the start of the year Honda was on the outer, Ford was supposed to be right there, and Toyota's weakness was the road course. But had Montoya had better luck, Toyota would have cleaned up everywhere....

Or would you go with Zakspeed or something not yet in it??

What is Zakspeed? I hear the Walker team may be going with them. Why not, nothing else seems to work for them....

Honda.
