It is interesting that NASCAR (with the word "stock" in their
name) is based upon four manufacturers fielding cars that now
have ZERO content from a car that you or I can buy. Since the
R07 Chevy's introduction a few weeks ago, none of the engines
are from a real car.....and Toyota's uses a Chevy bellhousing
pattern!

The nameplate is the only common item between the race car
and the street car. The old adage "race on Sunday, sell on Monday" still works but we can only go to the dealer and buy a poor substitute
for the race car......in the old days you could go buy a real 409
Super Sport or a Galaxie XL 427 or a Plymouth 426 wedge and you
got a car that was pretty much like what was raced.....

But then, I sure wouldnt want to watch a bunch of six cylinder cars
running around a track on Sunday!!
