I don't know that they made any show cars.
Bob made a hot tub shaped like an Indy car
after borrowing the body panels from Rahal
several years ago.

Royal Spa was a sponsor on the Pagan Racing
car for several years. When Pagan did not
enter a car for 2001, Bob put his money
on Billy Boat's car.

Anybody knows what will be the sponsors of the sidepods of Eliseo?

[CRISTAL FAN]

I think AJ would let that happen for one reason: The Chilean Sponsors.
Cool to have had the first news, here in Chile and not in the US.

Thanks AJ

[racedoctor]

have you guys ever heard of a SHOW CAR before? Why would the real race car be in Chile? Do you really think AJ would let that happen? Besides, the update kits just came out, thats why there is no test in Homestead. The car is being built in the shop in Houston as we sit here.

False.
Only Cristal remains with Eliseo.

Copec (Compaٌيa de Petrَleos de Chile) finish the conversations with Salazar since 1999.

But who knows...

Cristal and Copec are missing from this car. I suspect they will be on the car by race time. They have been with Eliseo forever.

Maybe RIO again??
I'll ask in Chile for your question Ovals Rule...

Cheers!!

[ovals rule]

so who is going onto the side pods?
I would figure Harrahs would have something on the car.

The New 2002 Helmet Car will be presented soon!!!

The Helmet will change between races, representing the 13 regions of Chile.

See you!

Isn't the new 2002 Helmet car? Hey, if the real thing looks that good it will be fine. At least they didn't blow the budget flying a car down there.

Good call. That's exactly what I was going to say.

Don't worry guys...
This was only a official presentation of the Sponsors.

Eliseo will run with a Dallara/Chevy combination this year.

In Chile there are some Eliseo's old Indy Cars, for this purpose. (Like the 95 Indy500 car).

Update kit maybe? 1st generation cars had vertical fins over the engines didn't they? Anyway, it looks nice.
