The car is nice but it looks a little Speed Racerish. I think if you want Indycar to stay around you need to copy the F1 rule book.

Totally with you – Swift wins hands down. Delta Wing is an appalling looking machine.

Seen the DeltaWing/PhallicWing/TricycleWing/DaggerWing/DeltaWang now the Swift33 looks completely reasonable. Nascar will sue for stealing the idea of the the Daytona 500 Trophy

OK everyone, I peeked into Roy’s bedroom, and he’s still fast asleep; with an empty 1/2 gallon of Jack and a crumpled up poster of “How to Make a Sazerac” still clenched between his teeth. Give it a few more days.

Exposed engine bay – two thumbs up.

Rear wing with two end supports a la Jim Hall’s 1979 Chaparaal – two thumbs up.

How excited Carrie gets every time a new pic is released… (filter activated).

Hobbsy, let’s salivate over the Lola and the Delta Wing before we declare a winner.

This is about to get interesting…

Ford, I want the cape. Worden, you’re exactly right, for some reason this forum has gotten serious about racing vehicles. Hobson, put some stagger in this blog so we don’t veer into the wall of caring. .

Mmmmmm, I’m thinking Scott Dixon will be perfect as Bruce Wayne. “Crank up the Swiftmobile Robin (Marco), there’s the bat signal coming from the Pagoda. That damn Joker (Paul Tracy) must be taking the high line again.”

Danica will be delicious as Batgirl. BAM,POW, “Outta my way Milky”.

Izod will require all the drivers to wear the colorful Izod batcapes.

This just gets more funner every day!

BTW, is it true that Mr. Polian has suggested that all the drivers rest up until the Homestead race to avoid injury? Jus sayin…..

Hobbson, your site is starting to resemble far too serious of an IndyCar blog lately… please throw back some turpentine and regale us with tales of Marco hitting on women at the bar.

As for the Swift, its pretty cool looking, but don’t we already know all the ‘Swiftlights’ information through onboard telemetry?

Underwhelmed so far. I don’t know about anybody else, but if you asked me in 1985, “what will the Indy car look like in 30 years?” you can bet your ass I’d be describing some sort of flying car thing that goes 300 mph. Pot should be legalized. http://country.paraguay.com/arts_and_culture/indigenous_art.php

Hobbson is so easy. Some shiny lights. A vague ninja visual reference, bottle of scotch — SOLD. Let’s wait until all the candidates are in the arena, shall we. You gotta catch a plane or something? Settle down.
