First - new tires for the 500. And I literally just updated them while sitting here in the Pagoda Plaza waiting for last row qualifying to start: www.indycals.net/decals/tires/2023indytires.html
The McLarens: The orange seems more traditional McLaren orange than what they've been using recently - doesn't pop 'quite' as much as it did last week. The only exception is the orange on the wheels -that IS dayglo orange.
The #5 is two tone metallic grey and black. The metallic grey has a slight greenish hue to it.
The #6 looks incredibly like a McLaren Mp4/4 even though it's not dayglo red. The nose profiles are very similar.
The #66 doesn't look all that great in person.
The #7 looks great and Johnny Rutherford was even in the qualifying shots with Rossi
The orange on the front endplates on Dixon's car is a different orange than the rest of the car - it has a redder-hue to it.
Conor's car is a train wreck. The colors are nice but it's WAY to busy. I do know for a fact that it was NOT designed by a professional (and it shows).
On Josef's Shell car it looks like a yellow to red fade. It is not. It is a yellow to BUTTERSCOTCH to red fade. It is a nice looking car.
The #10 and #11 are very boring
There's no OMIGOD I LOVE THIS CAR for me like there was last week with Rosenquists car (that car was GORGEOUS!)
My personal faves are the #6, #7 and Josef's car.
There's only a couple "there's no way in hell I'm doing that car" in the field (but in accordance with my policy to not say I will ever do or never do a car, I'm not saying which ones they are).

But I can't wait to see what it is!
