Ford Racing's Davis has a different view.
"If you look at the engineers I've lost, they're a predator as far as I'm concerned," Davis said as he shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know how you can come in and do a good job and be competitive and try to do your very best right away and not be a predator. I don't think it's possible."
Davis said Ford lost its top engineer to Toyota, whom he estimates received a 200 to 300 percent pay increase from the Japanese manufacturer.

The outcry from the mob will grow louder if the domination continues. It's amazing that some can't see the helicopters of Japanese capital being infused into NASCAR from the foreign car manufacture.

Harvick won the title in '14 in a Chevy, keeps racking up the top 5s, and is leading the points. The Penske Fords have been qualifying threats every week since the 'knock out' format was introduced. Ford and Chevy had 21 of last year's victories, not quite two thirds but likely within statistical deviation. There was only one Toyota eligible for the championship at Homestead in '14 and '15.Didn't Brad win 4 races in a Ford ?

But don't bother with facts. Any discussion started by dredging up the decade-old opinion of an owner now in decline was flame bait from the get-go. Check the OP's obsessive record on the subject.
He and StandOnIt would have gotten along great. SOI was obsessively anti-Toyota as well.But don't bother with facts. Any discussion started by dredging up the decade-old opinion of an owner now in decline was flame bait from the get-go. Check the OP's obsessive record on the subject.
I hope it didn't induce epileptic fits, like strobe lights are said to do.The above post gave me vertigo

You got one too huh?Dude, if you have anything to say to me, I strongly suggest you do it publicly in discussions. Peer mails can be used to your disadvantage.
Yeah, I'm feeling the love, or at least being encouraged to do something along those lines.You got one too huh?
But 4 or 5 Cups in a row for HMS / Chevrolet was ok with you.The outcry from the mob will grow louder if the domination continues. It's amazing that some can't see the helicopters of Japanese capital being infused into NASCAR from the foreign car manufacture.
If Ford or Chevy "bow out" the whole series will go under. Its on thin ice as is. TV ratings down and fans not showing up. nascar isnt shown on the popular channels anymore, NBCSN? FOX1? People with antenna tv cant watch. You never get to see a 25th place driver goes to his favorite track and run good, its always the same drivers in the top 5 or 6 every week. No wonder f the fans arent showing up. Todays race will be single file all day long, boring.
Save them. If we get more, we'll talk strategy.I think everyone has

Least you got one, I have noneI thought I was special. (Hangs head without Champion's cap falling off.)
Oh, I am sure it made him go out and buy himself a brand new Camry.I hope he enjoyed the outcome of today's race.

You aren't missing anything. Mine said EXACTLY what you'd expect.I feel left out, I havent got a PM from taco, what do I have do to get one?
I LOVE Japanese cars, is that good enough?, sadly, I am down to one in my driveway .
Oh, I can say I have damn good idea what was said.You aren't missing anything. Mine said EXACTLY what you'd expect.
They are assembled in America, not made. In what state are the toyter engines made? clue, tokyo isnt a state, yet.The made in America Toyotas are really not a concern anyway ........ great to see Americans building things
