to bad nascar is slowly selling out its fans by allowing a foreign make to enter an american car seriesIs that how you look at it? That's sad and narrow minded. Don't tell me you couldn't see this comming...It was only a matter of time for them to get into Nascar. Toyota has to meet all of the same standards as the current MFG's do, so how is it a sell out?

I really don't care if Toyota gets into nascar.
The only thing I would like is to turn on the Speed channel & watch something that is not nascar related.
Don't get me wrong I am a racing feind but essentialy I am just plain sick of nascar.

Roger that morg.

[burbanite]

Amen to that...

[Boozer]

I have yet to watch Nascar since they gave Jessie Jacksons biggot ass any money. Why dont they just go sponsor David Dukes next political campaign and make a donation to farakon (the bow tie f*cker)<sp>

[Banshee]

Personally I don’t care if Toyota’s, Honda’s or any other JAPANESE cars are made (assembled) in the US. They are still Jap’s. The money (profit) stills goes out of this country and into the hands of the Jap’s.
It’s important to remember 9/11 but don’t forget Pearl Harbor!

FU#k the Jap shit burningm burningm

to bad nascar is slowly selling out its fans by allowing a foreign make to enter an american car series,the frances and helton are doing a fine job of slowly screwing up a good thing,it will start with the trucks then will go to the busch series and the cup and when they do , i'm gone !! i don't want to see accords,camrays,altimas etc at daytona, vegas etc... the really sad but true thing is TRD and american honda/hrc will probably build a v8 that will spank our beloved bbc or bbf motors !!! look at everything they build in other series, thankfully the NHRA has thier heads on straight !!!!!! :mad: Not that I'm a big fan of them as I was born and raised in Anderson, Indiana and it's a washed up GM town. But....Toyota trucks are made in Princton, Indiana and those people there needed those jobs. I would bet that they are every bit as American as you and anyone you know.
Bottom line is a new Toyota truck is made in America and my new Chevy Surban was mostly made in Mexico.

[beached 1]

Well, I think it's cool that Toyota is getting into it. Competition forces everyone to get better.

I think this has been addressed already, you're a little off...
