I'm not sure about the release dates, but here are pics of the new Lunar racing series:
Nike Lunar Elite: Replaces the current zoom elite. So has the lunarlite system with its 'dynamic support' rather than the normal medial posting andhas the flywire and no sew as can be seen in the pics. The sample that I saw also has these little rubbery dots at the back of the heel to prevent slippage Iassume..also saw these dot on an early sample of the lunar glide so maybe they will be removed.
Nike Lunar Racer: This the update to the current lunaracer. All the overlays have been removed from the inside and placed on the outsideof the upper. I was also told there is a slight change in the upper material although it felt very similar to me. Also adds a medial arch (midsole comes up alittle higher under the arch area) and a bit more rubber added to the sole..a total of 6 grams added to the weight of the shoe.
Nike Lunar Swift: ultimately replaces the free everyday which will be discontinued (although the swift is nothing like the free withoutsole and midsole design). also utilises the no sew construction, Virtually had no flex grooves from what I could see and the whole sole is rubber with verylittle midsole to be seen.
