I reckon that looks very nice.

It has an elegant simplicity that is missing in many modern liveries.

Not much my type IMO but I guess we need another greenish livery....as some can be bland.

it's a long term deal
it's a Belgian company as well, which is nice for an all-belgian-crew (and also good to see Belgian companies are finally finding money for top-flight-motorsports)

Top-flight?

Don't take that question the wrongly: I am very much pro-CC, but "top-flight-motorsport"?

Nice-looking car, but it's surprising that the title isn't 'New Sponsors for Conquest', or (perhaps more accurately) 'New Sponsors for Heylen', which is the bigger (and unquestionably positive) element of the story.

that's because it's not new, they just upgraded the deal

and top-flight... well, it should be over in the US

Ah, well, yes, it is top-flight in North America (but that is more a negative comment on the current situation than a positive one for CC).

I thought you were meaning in global terms.

Top flight? Of course.

Okay it's not F1 but it's certainly at a very high level (along with IRL and GP2).

I would argue that CC a few years back was truly top-flight in the global sense, but I am not at all sure that is a reasonable claim any more.

Green & White. I love it.

Haven't seen something like that since the '96 "Shannon" Forti.

Can we stick to the topic? Crikey.

Chris Mower is apparently back and I heard something about another car on order.

That has what to do with the livery design?

Anyway, one question I have is about liveries in the current incarnation of CART/CC. It is not strictly on topic, but then there is not much we can say about the livery other than its appearance...

I notice that the cars, like this latest livery, basically only have a title sponsor. Is this a regulation thing, or is it just a result of economic realities?
