I'm really glad that Champ Car is getting a new chassis. Does anybody else care?
Nobody ever wants to talk Champ Car on this board.

If it keeps costs down thereby keeping teams in Champ Car and bringing in more teams then I think it is a good idea.
Before the split I was a huge champ car fan and I still prefer champ car to IRL but I really think both series need to merge to be successful. If you read Road and Track and Speed channel news they point out that neither series is doing well financially. Champ Car is having problems with teams, races, tv deals budgets etc. IRL is having similar issues and is being subsidized by Tony George's personal fortune.

I think the new chassis will be a boost for Champ Car. Keeping costs down is the only way to keep people in the game. There are likely to be some new teams on the grid next season. After the Olympics are over, Vancouver will likely hold a race again and the Las Vegas race should go over well. Montreal really depends on what NASCAR decides to do, but the Grand Prix du Trois-Rivere is rumored to be considering a step up to Champ Car.

All the IRL teams have dumped their version of the Panoz chassis, so that doesn't inspire confidence in Panoz to make a good Champ Car chassis.
The Formula Atlantic car used this year is nothing but a beefed-up Formula 2000 car and I fear the 2007 Champ Car chassis won't be anything but a bigger and more powerful Formula Atlantic car. It will be a cheap chassis and will only dilute a very weak series, one that is just hanging on by a thread.
I think we should all mourn the move away from the Lola chassis.
CART, a once proud and competitive series is now down to spec series - one (cheap) chassis, one engine, one tire, very few competitive drivers and some dreadful street races.

I don't think it will make much of a difference. Some teams will adapt to it faster than others. I would like to see the interest in Champ Car racing get back up a little.
