Indycar mandated mufflers in 2007.

Not entirely true. But yes. The DP01 was very much a roadracer (there was a mysterious oval package rumored, but it was never seen in public). The Dallara was designed purely for ovals, its major problem however is the fact that it has not nearly enough power.

the dallara indycar was built primarily as an oval racer and the Panoz as a road racer. In my belief the panoz would be comparitivley slower on ovals than the dallara due to the higher downforce levels. As is the case with the dallara compared to the panoz on road courses.
-
actually the DP01 was meant for ovals and road courses. the indy car was meant for ovals but a few changes made them OK for road/street

Which is why they're going to turbochargers in 2011.

the reason the indycars were slower at edmonton than the champ cars is because the champcars were specifically designed for road courses, therefore had higher downforce levels. indycars are built to suit ovals and road courses to have lower downforce to compensate
-
The Honda Indy engines sound shit and they are shit. They make the IndyCars several seconds slower than the Champ Car.
-
Bob Jenkins is right about the engines do sound different in the Indycars . . . they sound like shit

Bob Jenkins called this Indy race in Edmonton, Alberta when Marty Reid was in ORP in Indianapolis for the Nationwide Series.

DP-01 was still a much better car all-around. So long as you mean the Panoz DP-01, not the Dallara DP-01(Daytona Prototype).
