GM to Reduce NASCAR Funding

[tstran17_88]

He's got a point. Most teams just import their engines from other teams. All Ford engines are built by Roush now.

Roush Fenway is financing the engine operation, but Doug Yates is still the engine builder. The engines are built in Mooresville where RYR used to be located, all though I don’t think it’s in the same shops. (YR is now in the same subdivision as RF in Concord). There is only one other team running Fords in Cup and neither the Wood Bros or YR could afford to build their own engines and stay in business.

All Toyota engines come from TRD.

So if TRD supplies all the teams with a buttoned up crate engine, why would JGR still need to have a guy like Mark Cronquist (JGR engine builder) on the payroll?
