Thank you ClubLexus. I suck at Photoshop.

That's a murky one. The chassis is assembled in the U.S. by an Italian company and the Chevy engine was designed in the U.K. by Ilmor.

What?! There weren't any Elon Musk fire memes in the first 5 responses? You're letting me down internet.

I prefer to use the internet as a force for good as opposed to trolling comment pages all day. :) We can solve puzzles faster working together instead of calling each other idiots.

I'm going to agree with you. I can't find anytihng saying it was built anywhere other than their main facility. I double-checked the rest of the season because there were two races at Michigan that year (Michigan was faster than Indy back then), and the car didn't qualify well at either race. Indy was its fastest run.…

I must do research! Some of the Eagle chassis, like the Eagle-Weslake GP car, were built in England. If the '84 car was built in the US, we may have a winner!

Nevermind. I think the 2005 Chevy engine was an Ilmor too. This is a hard one!

Richie Hearn did 222.707 in qualifying for the 2005 Indy 500 using a Panoz chassis and Chevy engine.

Does it have to be an American chassis with an American engine? The Penske PC-23 Al Unser Jr. drove at Indy in 1994 qualified on pole at 228.011. It had a Mercedes engine though.

Not trying to exaggerate. Some shops are just more of a rip-off than others. This shop wants $760 for them.

I raced my Mustang with the GT500 Eagle F1s for a time but had to move up to something better. They are fine for driving, but they give up a lot on the track (and wear quickly). I got them at an overstock sale for $125 each. I looked up the Trofeos, and they were $750 a piece. So to be that close the GT500 driver had…

$105... and one penny.

Mine in wrapped plastic in the basement of my parents' house. No little kids getting ahold of that.

I one-up you, sir.

Can you still get a greasy sack of fries there? Whataburger was among my fondest childhood memories of visits to Texas.

First I've heard of it too.

With a mild (don't want to blow it up) engine tune and cold air intake, my Coyote engine is making 400 RWHP. With 11-15% drivetrain loss, that puts the crank rating at 450-470hp. I think (and hope) the Ford engineers could safely tune the engine better than we can, getting the power close to the 500 mark.

As the owner of an Alfa Romeo Spider, I believe this imagine is actually indicating the pile of money I'll never see again from trying to keep it running.

I sure hope they are worth more in 10 years! I need the added value to offset the repair costs. (I have an '85 Spider)

I think I'll go with this '86 Spider for $4250. 107k miles and functional A/C. Not as much storage capacity, but way more fun. Plus you get the famous Alfa reliability. ;)
