I heard this on the radio the other day. They required Toyota to make a pushrod, OHV, V8 engine, since they only have DOHC V8's, just to compete. NASCAR - National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing. What is stock about a company making an engine specifically for racing in NASCAR; moreover, can somebody show me any year in which a Camry came stock with a V8 at all? I'm glad I'm not a NASCAR fan, but if Toyota ever makes it into the NHRA, I'm officially done with motorsports all together.
