Thanks Google.
 
They just seemed to do a couple of races, and then we never heard from them since.

they were talking about being an engine supplier but after that performance at the start of the season who is going to want those engines?

that is probably the only possible backwards step for Team KR at the moment but the engines would be cheap.
 
Could be worse actually.
Imagine a KR chassis coupled with an Ilmor engine and Dunlop tyres. I don't even know if it would get to the exit of pitlane without falling apart

Hey don't diss the Ilmors engine.

At Qatar, the only race tey ever ran in 07, it was pretty high up on the top speed charts.

Just a bit .... on the injection, ya know.

Ilmor know how to build an engine (look at their F1, champ car success) I believe most of their problems in GP were chassis related..

I was waiting for someone to have the sense to point out that Ilmor are excellent engine builders. I think with the rigth chassis builder they could make a very successsful team.
