Not to lament, but they ought to have something more than just the mfgr money in them and decals on them to be consider a "Brand X" car.

We desperately need NARSCAR. The additional "R" for Real.

Well the manufacturers design the engines for the cars. So each brand of car does have a different engine in it, but it is nothing related to a street engine at all.

You are correct that there is nothing manufacture wise left on the cars. They are decaled doubles. And the engines are straight race bred.
To me that is what takes the fun out of the race. Boring.
