Street Legal Indy!??!
I would be willing to bet shock value aside it wouldn't be much fun on the street. With a ride height of just over an inch and totally uncomprimising suspension not to mention I'm sure it overheats unless moving quite quickly you wouldn't drive it far.
I've actually gotten a chance to drive open wheel cars on the street and I wouldn't want to do it again unless it was under controlled conditions. I worked on the worst racing movie ever (Driven and I will not admit that again).
At one point they needed me to drive one of the cars up to the set in the middle of downtown Toronto from a parking lot a few block away. The cop leading the way took a wrong turn and we ended up in normal traffic for a second. It isn't until you are about eye level with the center cap of Miata's wheel that you realize "No one along side me is going to see me in this thing I hope I don't get run over." At least you know they would hear it.
It would definitely be fun to bring out to the track though.

They were supposed to be Champ cars but, were basically more like late models that looked something like a Champ car.
