Also it really pisses me off that the SI website lists all motorsports under the catagory "NASCAR"
theres reasoning behind it...all cars are essentially identical body wise..they try to promote equal footing for all teams for the initial stage...it comes down to how good your team is at tweaking and ultimately how good of a driver you are. not how much backing you have to build a top of the line car
besides starting next year wont matter...everyone will be switching the the nascar sanctioned and licsenced body...the only think manufacturer specific will be the engine and even those are extremely limited in uniqueness.
