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.
I get a kick out of you lumping everyone in this thread together and crediting them with the opinions stated by ONE person. Then accusing them of "whining like bitches?" Must suck to be a ricer........
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.
You really really really have no idea what you are talking about, do you? Do you know anything about the rules concerning things like compression ratio, cubic inch limit, cam lift limits, the fact that they are running a
flat tappet camshaft, and then they do it all afternoon without the motor disintegrating? The horsepower they get out of those motors with the rules, and then a restricter plate is absolutely amazing. But I know, it's a V-8, they're easy to make horsepower with

Mustang cobras have 32 valves, a hydraulic roller cam, AND forced induction. All of which are not allowed in NASCAR, plus they don't run 200 mph. Bikes have no business in the conversation at all, so I'll just leave that one alone. If you would get over yourself and take some time to learn a little, you would realize what a ridiculous statement that was and how impressive the numbers are given the rules they have to work with.......
