Finals for best paint job of the year. Some would say I'm biased because I was a PPG guy when I painted cars for a living and I like YRB, but I really love the look of that 12 car.

With the Fusion being no more, Nascar unveiled the Cup Mustang. I like it. Looks fast with that long hood and fastback style roof line.

That's not a sedan.  HTF is NASCAR going to allow that?  

Neither is the Camaro. Neither is the Challenger once Dodge returns, which they've said they plan to. I think they should go with the Charger, it's more aerodynamic. Hence the higher top speed.

There is no Camaro in real NASCAR.  Are you talking about the poverty Xfinity series?

So are they changing everything?  Why will the Xfinity series be around of sports cars are allowed in Monster?

One way to look at the Xfinity vs Cup Series is to compare it to MLB's Major vs Minor Leagues. The Xfinity series is a developmental series for drivers, crew chiefs, pit crew, engineers, etc.

Yes, and Xfinity is for sports cars while the Cup series is for sedans.  Why are they f*****g this all up just because Ford is being a boner and discontinuing their sedan lines?

I expect lots more changes in the coming years. Big changes. I believe the France family will sell NASCAR and the sport will benefit greatly from it. I hear a lot of chatter about NASCAR returning to several short tracks it no longer races at. As well as a couple of manufacturers that are interested in joining NASCAR.

I'll only care if they add 5 more Rovals.

Definitely need more rovals, road courses, and short tracks.
