I don't believe Mr. Ashmore is another Frank Kurtis, or A.J. Watson.............

Ashmore has worked on CART type cars. Not really close to the 'high tech' level of an F1 car, and so fricken far away from an all oval, upright, front engined car....that it's laughable.

Did he wrap a pig in new clothes.....yep
Did he make a few changes to the pig.....sure
Is the slightly changed pig in different clothes going to fly.....???

USAC didn't try to phase this style of car in, they just dumped the traditional pavement Champ Cars...did the owners like that? I seem to remember the owners having meetings and discussing their displeasure.

The NAPCAR fans didn't fill the stands to watch the last incarnation of these cars.

Why did the first attempt at starting up this type of car fail? Why are some people on here so hell bent sure that it is going to fly this time? Is Mr. Ashmore spiking the Kool-Aid....

What are the ticket prices going to be to see these cars race? If it's more than $20-$30 it just might be a hard sell.......

Not being negative, just looking at this with some reality, and not through the eyes of somebody that is trying to make a buck or two off this.
