Looks like maybe they're planning on moving up to the 1980's in terms of aerodynamic design.

No pictures?

IMO, I don't think aero is where they need to join the 80's... they need friggen DOHC fuel injected motors. I think it's commical Bodine says "Take a look around the showrooms today, and you'll see that most every new car model has a wing on the back". Meanwhile there hasn't been a carburated pushrod motor sold in a car by any of the big manufacturers since the early 80's.

NASCAR cars look fine as they are IMO. But if they're gonna make 'em look like V8 Supercars, here's to hoping they're gonna start racing 'em like V8 Supercars!

i dont care until they have at least 1 right turn or a chicane, or better yet, do it like the Duke boys, on the dirt cross-country.

I don't care what they do, period - I'll just go back to watching WRC. :P

Nascar's one step ahead of you... they canceled all WRC coverage in this country. :(
