I liked it, too...very racy and very cool-looking...shame they aren't really racing elsewhere except Euroboss
They race a version of it in the SuperLeague formula, with a V12.

I always thought Champcar made a mistake in dropping Lola and running just with the DP01. If they'd run both chassis it would have given the series variety, more impetus and Lola would have had to build a new chassis in order to compete.
