Default RE: Series Formerly Known As Busch to Pony Up

Amen. NASCAR needs to to change its name or do what RLSH700 is saying....either make all short tracks actual stock cars, make all bush series actual stock carts (with NASCAR approved safety cages and other preps) or have a forth (in addition to trucks series) class of racing called Rally or some such thing which would be stock cars on road courses. Hell, I'd go up to Watkins Glenn for real Dodges racing....I think it would attract a bunch of people who are jaded with the status quo.

Also, why they were at it, they could introduce new specs to push technology. Have 3 liter 6 cylinder class. This way they could keep the speeds at a relatively safe speed and really push the technology. Back in the 50's,60' and 70's, NASCAR racing technology was making its way into the market....now you look at what the engine specs are and wonder, why? They still produce incredible horsepower and torque, but allow overhead cams, efi, (not sure if they're allowed to have electronically controlled ignition, but that too if not allowed now)

Be kind of cool, to say, "Yeah, my brand is really figuring things out and making the fastest Stock Cars".
