NASCAR just keeps getting sillier all the time...

"i'd say the "old technology" does pretty damn good at what it's supposed to do"

What? Turning left?

Ain't nothin' but a rolling road block 'til someone berkeleys up and causes a crash.

I hate these NASCAR threads.

Then don't read them. QED

In large part, it's been sponsored by oil companies (Union 76, Sunoco etc) and it just would not look good for the cars to not use their sponsor's numbah one product, ya know? Talk about slow changes: up till the COT was introduced NA$CAR rules dictated the use of a production car floor pan. Considering nothing else in the cars was even really close to stock (when is the last time you saw a RWD Taurus or Fusion?) that was pretty stupid.

Negative...they did not use production floor pans before the cot. We used to race in nascar so i have a bit of experience. Also...they are far from low tech. They may use some primative concepts...but low twch they are not. Wind tunnel time is second only to f1 for example. Anyway these nascar bashing threads are getting old. They are what they are for better or worse...

I can't help it is like a bad train wreck of people not knowing what they are talking about. If you don't like watching the oval track or the WWF style stuff then just say it but to say it isn't high tech is just stupid.

Oval track is for dumb rednecks! Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go pick up cones for the next 6 hours

Could be worse. Could be a what car thread.
