You guys must not be thinking very far...if all of our money goes out to Japan because they sell more and make a better car, then we wont have any money here, thus no one buying American cars, thus no jobs to build the American cars and nobody able to drive them.
yeah because all I see driving on the roads is Toyotas.
You are a tool to the nth degree man.. and have absoulutely NO clue as to the depth of the talent that NASCAR engineers have..
Put the euro/F1, etc engineers on the same playing field (no electronics, carbd, pushrod, etc) and not have practically unlimited budgets.. or flip it and give your NASCAR engineers more to work with...
I bet they'd both be about equal.
Whatev, you guys are whining like bitches cause Toyota never built a v8 pushrod engine and therefore it shouldn't be allowed to run in NASCAR.

Like ANYTHING I see at the Daytona 500 resembles anything close to what I can buy at the showroom. V8 Monte Carlo. HAHAH, they should have but the didn't.
I would hope to god anyone that is pushing that kind of HP/Weight ratio could make a car run 200mph all day. Shit, Mustang Cobras and my 96hp bike will damn near do that and you can buy them at the dealerships. I don't see what's so impressive. Any car with that kind of HP/Weight ratio and the right gearing could do that an more all day.
