^i'm not a big fan of the narrow single-seater type nosecone, but other than that, sexy!! i love those real teardrop-shaped cockpits, and i like the area behind the front wheels (dunno what to call it), like the Mazda RX-792P (had to look that name up :P )

I prefer the nosecone of the Dome over Pugs single seater nosecone. It's a shame no (A)LMS team has bought the S102 for the 2008 season. |

Absolutely stunning!
I for one would be totally content if Dome just race the car themselves, as they are a very capable outfit that would show the car's true potential more so than any privateer could. |

The Dome S101.5 / S102 test at Sugo went well - I've decided to sort of keep up with this cars development. I'm pretty sure it will be suprise a lot of people

From this angle it looks totally different to the old one? When will the 102 get on track? |

Dome will run the S102 as a works car at Le Mans, with an all Japanese driver line up

Too late to add it to the main article but the S102 will not race until Le Mans - but it may do some LMS afterwards but they din't seem that fussed I guess that means Domes is confident of an entry.
To DJ frozen yoghurt in brown stuff - no chap sorry, I didn't ask - I don't do drivers just cars. Last edited by ss_collins; 29 Dec 2007 at 00:26. |

Wouldn't be surprised if one of the drivers is Ito Daisuke. He is one of the drivers they have as test pilots and he did win the Super GT championship with Firman this year.
