    Oh sorry I should have said that I consider this version of the Delta Wing almost as ugly as the vaccum cleaner Chaparral.
    Therefore I have hidden the picture in above quotation :D

    No the cutest Delta Wing is this one.
    And if Im right rumour said that it was secretly intended for some Indy thing later on :whistle:

    Basically there's 4 major versions of the Deltawing:

    First, the concept put forth to bid for the next IndyCar series car:

    Next, the car that raced at Le Mans:
    [​IMG]

    That car continued to race in IMSA and later also got a roof over its head:

    Finally, there's the Nissan ZEOD ripoff, where the designer of the car moved to work directly for Nissan and just blatantly copied pretty much the same design for an electric Nissan that also raced at Le Mans:

    mm, I'd never drive the delta wing car. Just saying. Too niche.

    Thank you Dolph for pointing this out. ThumbsUp\ :)

    Personally I think the open cockpit versions of the DeltaWing are the cutest.
    The closed cockpit does look as it does belong to a much larger car :whistle:
    Oh and I think that the aborted RL DeltaWing IndyCar project could have been exciting.
    At least if the "car" ended up being reasonable competitive with the 4-wheeled IndyCars.
    Because one of the advantages with the DW design was that the fuel consumption should be very low.

    ByTheWay: @JavierZumaeta good to know for all us others. Important info.
    And are you also interrested to know about the AMS2 cars I never gonna start up?
    I can probably create a list.;)

    Oh you evil man.:confused:

    ByTheWay: If this design had become a success all the IndyCar designers had got headache :p

    The Deltawing is far better looking than the IR-12... The IR-18 is ok, but I think I still prefer the way the Deltawing looks...

    Yeah, the IR/DW-12 was not a nice looking car compared to the 2011 cars. The new ones look good though.

    It was a bid to supply the series as a single make. If the DeltaWing would have won, all of the cars would have been deltawings.

    Also, when you refer to that period of indycar, then the actual winner ended up being called DW (Dallara DW12 = Dallara Dan Wheldon 2012)

    I hope Simioni does follow this thread and conclude: Ok Ok here we have a lot of reasonable guys who dont just gimme gimme does DEMAND this unusuable car.
    But instead in a polite and friendly way try to inform me and the Reiza team that it would be an advantage for us to licence and create this cute little marvel.

    And then goes back to the team and say: Hear this story guys .... should we .....:whistle::D
