In an effort to silence its many critics, IndyCar has decided to begin flapping its collective gums about wanting to bring about an end to spec racing. www.racer.com/indycar/item/12...racing-in-2017Many people, rightfully, are skeptical.

If this does come about........you will find me and all of my wondeful ideas in the pits at 16th & Georgetown Road. The time has come for yours truly to get his shot at history. I will not be denied!!!!!
The avatar at the left is when innovation came to a grinding halt. It is time for it to return again along with those magical words......"It's a new track record". Tom Carnegie......we miss you!!!

Hey Wrench... if this actually does come to pass do you want me to contact JoeGraphix to design the paint job for the car? Of oourse the PI will be featured. If this does come to pass, the entire Board of the Phoenix Inn and it subsidaries will sit down for a meet and greet. At that time we will discuss all that is necessary to bring it all together. JoeGraphix, GLC, DOE and all those who paricpated in the original "Talksmack" will be notified. It is our time to make our own mark in the racing world and to stake our place in Indy 500 history. I want everyone there for all of it. I maybe swinging the iron but I will need all the help I can get to make this happen. That is what a race team does.....it works together with one cause. We need to find Andrew B also. He wasn't sure if this would happen but he and Roggespierre need to be with us. I think our time has come.

Lets hope this is not another Indy Car joke. As we all know they scream of lowering cost, yet they won't let innovation in.In the real world we all know that innovation drives costs down, not up. If it did drive cost up we would all be paying thru the nose for cell phones, cars and other items modern society has produced.
