Well, the owners get their way again and us fans get screwed yet again. The owners met with Randy Bernard and have decided that they don't want the aero kits for 2013. So, we get one more year of a spec series. The owners are still unhappy with the prices and I honestly doubt that they'll ever be happy. I still think these cars look ugly. They look fantastic from the front, but the further towards the back of the car you go, the uglier it gets. And many fans, myself included, want a change from that. The problem is, the IRL was created as an affordable series. And if the series isn't affordable anymore, the owners won't have it. That is why Dallara is the only chassis in the IZOD IndyCar Series today. When you only have one chassis to choose from, it's cheaper. So, that's why it is the way it is. Does any fan like it? Not that I know of. But we can't fix it. Who knows? Maybe with the aero kits Lotus wouldn't be so slow, or Chevy would be faster, we don't know and we probably never will.
As long as no one blames Randy Bernard for this, all will be fine and dandy. I can live with one more year of a spec series.
