^^^^^^^^i agree jer......sorry but the cars look like crap....maybe that wing works, maybe the new body kit works, but not for me...this may be my last year to watch NASCAR if they go this direction....JMO and i do believe i am entitled to my own opinion

well this right here pretty much pushed me over the edge with nascar. What ever happened with good ol racing anyway? It turned in to one big soap opera with way to many rules.

i think although the cars do look like shit, since they all have the same shit pretty much i think the compitetion in NASCAR will increase drastically from it

This is NASCAR's way of grabbing Ricers attention... And I think NASCAR is doing a pretty good job of it too...

I think its stupid having everyone with basically the same car. Yes there should be certain limitations but where is the fun in it anymore?

I'm not crazy over the look but the cars should be more stable once the teams have them figured out. I think its going to force everyone to be even more technical now. A bunch of the cars that were at the SCCA runoffs this year had very tall & big wings on them and they are very functional. Granted they look like ass, but they work.

I'm not a fan of the wing, i do however kind of like the front splitter.
kindda looks like there playing with the Dodge/Plymouth cheater book from 1969-1970 remember some of the odd Aero stylings they had?

If they loose that splitter bump drafting too roughly it'll get interesting.

i've also heard that the reason they want to switch to this is to make a car that the teams would race at all the tracks w/ limited changes...instead of having a superspeedway car a shorttrack car etc....tryin to make it easier for low budget teams

I just think that is more crap to get on the track when they have small fender benders. But then again the splitter might tuck in better for drafting.

hahaha.

they should do one special race, where they use the real car.

a monte/impala, a camry, a fusion and a charger.

the cars arent that bad, but the wing MUST GO! the cars definitely look better decal'd up...

i will agree the wings must go...but i like what they did w/ the front ends

As soon as they hit the guy infront of them, off comes that splitter......now all they have to do is figure out how to get rid of that wing during the race.....

you could always finish the race upside down while being on fire... that might take the wing off :D

Man...Talk about afraid of change.......

The cars have changed dramaticly over the years. The COT is Nascar's way of stepping up and FINNALLY making the cars more stable and technologicly current.

I doesnt really matter.......The same 4 teams will still dominate the sport. And as far as F&F having an effect on NASCAR, or them trying to appeal to that market, is about as retarded of a statement as I have ever heard.

I'm not a fan of the wing, but if it's functional then I cannot really complain.

I personally like the fact that it's based on how good of a driver you are (or how much of an ass you are, which I won't get into), I'm not going to sit and nit-pick over the way the cars look. I have no problem with an update, it was bound to happen some time.

Exactly! So it's not a duck-bill wing, big deal.

I'm sure there's a reason that they went with the wing they did, and I'm sure I'd never be able to comprehend the math that they use to figure out which to go with.

i think the wing looks terrible but the way i see it the corvette has a wing thats functional, it may look ugly but it doesnt take anything away from the fact that its still a corvette. if thats what nascar is gonna do i guess it doesnt matter.
