When is the IRL going to announce 2007 specs?

[F1 fanru]

Considering the R&D time with developing a new chassis that can be used on ovals and road courses time is getting short for 07.

Are they even changing chassis specs in 2007?

After delaying the engine spec annoucement for months, Barnhart said in the end there would be no if minor changes. Maybe the same deal for the chassis?

Single Engine Supplier, old chassis... why does this sound familiar?

Will anyone even bother with the Panoz, now that Panoz is putting their resources towards a ChampCar program?

I suppose there's worse things than a field of Dallara-Hondas.

Add it to the list of things that were "bad in CC that are good in the IRL".

Single engine supplier, series owners running teams, street circuits, etc etc etc...

jono...for MANY, MANY years INDY Car fans had to listen to how bad it was that the IRL was a "spec series".......when CC was forced to go with the single engine, the tune quickly changed...........you got no point......

Go back and read some posts.

Funny how we heard a lot more about the conflict of being a series owner and a team owner before "Vision Racing".

Funny how we rarely hear about "street parades" since St. Pete's.

Now it's ok to have an outdated chassis? I guess we'll see.

[wilke] I heard there was a driver that didn't want to get into a car this season because the tub was 4 years old and had over 500K miles on it and the sidepods were held on with duct tape. You know those new cool wege mirrors? That because the stalks are so old they turned to dust so the teams are just hot gluing the mirros to the top of the sidepods. [/wilke]

IRL 2006 model = CCWS 2004 model

I'd say the 2007 IRL specs are whatever Honda says they'll be.

I am no RM apologist by any means, but your sig line is taken way out of context.
