ps: I've got a couple of Eldon 1/32nd GP Ferraris that look like that! But with no side pods or nose work.(actually, I think they're the Lancia D50 that Enzo bought)

That's actually one of the designs in contention to be USAC's new "Gold Crown." i.e. modified versions of the New Generation Silver Crown "Buttmobile" that failed so dismally. There is talk of a road race or two in this new series. Naturally the Indiana faithful on the website I first learned about this on were horrified because turning right is ungodly.

I remember Mikey said something like that in a commercial. :laugh:

Well I don't watch the IRL now so I guess I won't miss anything when it goes all silver crowny:shakehead

I'll be stunned if that series makes it through another full season let alone to some dopey looking car in 2011. Sponsors were nearly impossible to attract when the economy was booming. Now? Right. Unless TG wants to fund the entire grid of course....:tony:

A turd with wheels, that will pack the stands, especially if it's slow and sounds like ****.
