I could see those exhaust pipes getting closed up. What would that do?

If those were exhaust pipes and they got closed up you'd lose a lot of power to start with and then they'd eventually be sweeping your motor off the track

Glad to see them finally doing something about the exhaust pipes.

They say that's part of the plan to limit bump drafting. That would be better than the damn cooling fiasco.

I'm not overly impressed with the look of the 2013, but it's a little better than what we had.

I like them so far, they look better than what we've had lately. Wish they'd do away with the splitter though. They'll never look as good as they did in the 80's cause the cars just ain't as cool. There was nothing cooler than the Aerocoupe Monte Carlo blasting around the race track....IMO anyway

Its our Daytona this weekend here in Ozz.
The 50th running of the Bathurst 1000.
Will be worth taking a look at if you've got time.

There's a round of our V8's in Texas in 2013.I thought they would televise it to gain a following.

Speed covered it last year by sending Jaws Waltrip, remember?

I remember that they had televised it last year but when I just looked at the Television thread I didn't see it on the list. I'd probably have to set my DVR for this one. I just needed to know when it was on to do that. I'll search my guide later.

New 2013 NASCAR Inspection Station on display @ Talladega. Some of the crew chiefs are there checking it out. Notice who's first in line.

Give that one a good 'once over' John. Something looks a little fishy with that left front.

Another view of the inspection. The little blue boxes have lasers and the car actually is moved remotely on platform. Should help consistency in tech?
dpkimmel2001

They are saying the the use of the lasers should eliminate most of the templates.

NASCAR could not agree with Montreal promoter, Nationwide Series won't return in 2013.

Yeah, they definitely promoted it. If anyone does find if/when/where it's being televised in the U.S., please let us all know. Thanks.

Well that sucks. The Montreal race is one of the better races of the year. That's 2 good tracks in 2 years as they pulled ORP (or IRP) this year.

I allow her vehicle to be parked in such hallowed company. She has a Chevy Equinox, while the true vehicle[F-150] is on the other side in the winter. Too much going on in the summer to be in the barn every night...
