They didn't run very close and there was little to no passing because everytime they got close to the car in front of them they PUSHED like a dump truck. Go look at the results to see how LITTLE passing there was. And I didn't question Ashmore I pointed out he has NEVER did an F1 car and if he was in the class of a Newey he'd be making millions and not doing this car. And I don't do drugs but anyone with half a brain can see that nose will cause lift due to it's shape, the fact it slants FORWARD and has several pockets to catch air. Has the great wizard done ANY wind tunnel time on that nose and sidepods? And why would you hire a company to build an open wheel body for use on high speed large ovals that has never done anything but stock car bodies for short track racing?????? Kind of like hiring Cessna to build the next space shuttle body.... I think you may be doing drugs if you think this deal, which FAILED completely and totally with USAC and NASCAR behind it can fly with a person who has NEVER ran a racing series in charge. Go toss your money in the trash if you want but don't cry to us AGAIN when it fails. Your fan base, the people who love the crown cars, didn't support it before and won't now. Good luck, you're going to need it, and with your attitude towards those of us who have loved and supported the crown cars for years you're going to need alot of luck, like hit the lottery type of luck!
