Interesting Item on New Chassis in Indy Star (Merged)
Check out this bit of news...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.indystar.com/article/2009...ylvania-tunnel Apparently the radical chassis design is from Ben Bowlby, formerly Lola's chief designer and now part of Ganassi. It looks like a cross between a sports car and a motorcycle and is sleek and new age. Ganassi, Michael Andretti, and Tony George at least are all pushing for this design. Dallara is the other chassis being considered and would be an evolution of the existing design. Here's some interesting stuff thoughts from Bowlby in Racecar Engineering about what he'd want a new car to be. Sounds like it'd be lightweight, fuel efficient, and with many areas on the car to tweak. http://www.racecar-engineering.com/a...polis-500.html Last edited by Tim Northcutt; 20 Nov 2009 at 15:11. |
