HVM Racing announces fan contest
I got this from an e-mailed press release courtesy of the Indianapolis-based Indycar team of HVM Racing. Do you have an idea of what the future of Indycar racing will (or should) look like? Well, here’s your chance to show your ideas and possibly win TWO tickets to the May 30th Indianapolis 500 auto race!
Best of Luck (And if you win, don’t forget who told you about this contest! If you take me, I’ll be your designated driver even!)

Oh yeah, enjoy the article and good luck…..
What Should the Next-Generation Open-Wheel Race Car Look Like?
Indianapolis, Ind. - What does the perfect open-wheel racing car of the future look like in the minds of the fans? HVM Racing would like to find out. The team is opening an online forum to tap into the creativity and passion of race fans, inviting suggestions and ideas for a new chassis design. Fans are encouraged to submit their concepts to www.hvmracing.com/hvmblog. All sketches, designs, opinions and criticisms are welcome. Images of designs can be uploaded directly to www.hvmracing.com/hvmblog, and all submissions will be displayed on the site. “It’s a fun exercise to engage the fans,” said Keith Wiggins, team principal and owner. “If you read any online forum or blog about open-wheel racing, you can see that most fans have very specific ideas about the sport, its participants and the car itself. The car is a current topic and important to our future. This will give them a chance to show off their ideas, regardless of whether they’re realistic or just fantasy.” One submission, selected by a random drawing from all submissions, will win the opportunity for two people to be VIP guests of HVM Racing at the 2010 Indianapolis 500.
