Are you looking for Indy pictures or other races, because Ward's car changed practically from race to race. I've got a few photos that I can dig out and post them later today. Sadly, photos from the early IRL a tough to come by. There was a lot a good racing that many people were too quick to dismiss.
Thanks,
Scott

I wouldn't mind making the Tobasco car. Anyone planning on creating decals for this one?

Another good looking car from 1998 was Davey Hamilton's Reebok G-Force.

I wish I understood the inner workings of the Reebok sponsorship. 1998 Starts with the #15 Riley & Scott effort:  Salazar DNQ's, so we get the #6 Nienhouse Reebok entry for Indy:  Then the sponsorship expands in June to include both cars. For 1999, the $$$ is gone, and Salazar changes teams to... Nienhouse! Meanwhile, Galles relaunches his team, which was bought by Nienhouse, and hires Davey to drive for him. |

If I recall correctly, Reebok was in discussions to become the series sponsor, but I'm not sure how close this was to happening. The story I remember was they wanted to sponsor a car as well, but the IRL said they couldn't do both, so Reebok cooled on the idea, sponsored the car(s) for a year and then left.
Thanks,
Scott
