    Just watching Bristol qualifying on TVU - Lordy, those cars are ugly looking.

    I thought they looked good during qualifying.
    They're light years ahead of the Cars Of Yesterday in looks, IMO.
    With all the distorting teams to the bodies to get an aero advantage, the COY's look like they've been wrecked before they even hit the race track.
    Cup - Stewart, Kahne & Labonte
    IRL - Hornish, Castroneves & Dixon
    F1 - Alonso, Hamilton & Räikkönen

    The only thing that needs to be fixed is the sides of the Rear wing, they are way to big and need to be trimmed down
    Brian France is a violation of Section 12-1 (actions detrimental to stock car racing)

    i thought that they looked SO SWEET in race paint. the fusion looks way more like a fusion like the old car. I can't wait for the race.

    The rear wing should be even bigger, it should be like a Top Fuel dragster's rear wing. :

    I've got no problems with the CoT. I think it looks better than the CoY and actually looks closer to a street car in shape than the CoY. Yea, the splitter makes it pretty non-street, but the shape is a bit better.

    Yea, I can't think of a worse place to debut them...going to be nothing but a waste of money and time spent on something that'll look like it's been through a demo derby by the end of the race.

    Interesting... how the explanation of the onboard RFID chips are used, basically as a way for NASCAR to determine if a chassis has been 'tampered' with as well as certification. If this works well, you might see other series look at it as a way to maintain chassis legality.
    Defend mediocrity... because excelence is just too hard to achieve. :p
