wow, i guess posting a link was beyond my capabilities yesterday!

I must have copied the link from the wrong tab. I meant to link to the Racer article:

https://racer.com/2018/06/20/dpi-man...e-proposals/2/

From Scott Sharp:

Quote:
But even then, I think $30 million for one team? That’s a substantial jump from where a DPi car would be right now. I don’t see how there’s any equation there.
and then:

Quote:
Bottom line, I don’t think there’s anybody in DPi signing up to go spend four or five times what we’re spending now.
So i did some math and divided $30 million by "4 or 5" and got the $6-7.5 million budget number
