Another proposal has been submitted by a group of well-known designers for the next generation of IndyCar chassis that could be in use for the 2012 season.
This new entity, Bat Engineering, includes the likes of the former Lola designer and Reynard US head Bruce Ashmore, ex-March and Galmer designer Alan Mertens, and former G-Force man Tim Wardrop.
BAT’s proposal follows a series of other concept cars already unveiled by Dallara, Lola, Swift and DeltaWing .
Well-renowned motorsport surgeon Dr Terry Trammell and IndyCar's safety and technical directors Jeff Horton and Les Mactaggart were consulted thru the whole process to ensure that its design offers safety benefits over the current chassis.
In addition, the company promises that the car will be constructed within 30 miles of Indy to keep teams' costs down and stimulate local industry.
