Seven straight Cup Championships and 14 Championships in the past 20 seasons. Can you say "Dominate?" :beerbang:
 
Nationwide and Trucks aren't as good, but both still show Chevy winning six of the last ten years. With four MFGs in there 6 out of 10 is still a great record.
 
There are numerically more Chevrolets in each of the three series', so Chevrolet has the best opportunity for a win based on sheer numbers.
 
Everyone knows that the Chevy Decals make the cars go faster when compared to the Ford Decals.

:XXROFL:

Honestly, what is the point of even calling them Chevy's, Ford's or Toyota's anymore? They have as much common in the street cars as a cat does with a dog.
 
Engines are still fords and chevys. I know it costs a whole lot more to build a ford all aluminum motor than a chevy all aluminum motor lol.

I guess the bailout worked...maybe Ford should've got one as well.
 
So tell me, what model Ford or Chevy can you buy in the showroom that comes with a Pushrod V-8 with a Carburetor?
not so much a carb, but dodge motors are still pushrod I believe. But the 5.9 and 5.2 are from the 70's and dodge still uses em, that's why. I think the *.7's are OHC now, though.
 
Isn't the Chevy LS6 engine also a pushrod V8?

To add to sloggie's question, where can you find a car with a 4-speed trans and a solid Ford 9" rear end?

Yes!

Circling around most the racertacks in the United States
 
The FR9 is also a pushrod motor.
but the FR9 blovk isn't avaliable in a street car, right? I think that was the question.

The dodge 3.7/4.7/5.7 are all OHC, but the 3.9, 5.2, and 5.9 are the exact same blocks as the 1970/1980/1990 318 and 360 (the 3.9 is a 318 with 7 & 8 chopped off). All were used up until 2004, when dodge brought the *.7's out. I think the last production year for the 3.9/5.2/5.9 was 2008?
 
So, the Chevy LS6 and the Chrysler HEMI are pushrod engines available in street cars. Toyota and Ford V8s are all OHC for their street engines, right?

And no STREET car is available with a carb or a 4-speed trans.

I think that NASCAR should follow the lead of the Australian V8 Series and allow up-to-date electronic fuel injection, 6-speed sequential-shift transmissions and independent rear suspension. Also, get rid of the damn front-end "packers" and give the teams some adjustability on travel and shocks. That would mean getting rid of the splitter, but I say, good riddance! It should die a horrible death - just like the ill-fated WING!
 
wrong can you get one at the show room

Who gives a ****? its racing not driving the mini van down the interstate. This is racing bad ass fast and the hell with stock! You want what they got pony up the 150,000 or what ever the price tag is and either get it on the track or stare at it in your garage. Strictly stock is in the past and it aint comin back!
 
Speaking of minivans why do people incist on driving them 80 mph? Newsflash your still in a Dodge Caravan.

Then they need to stop calling them stock cars.

I agree with ya but what else is there to call em? Race cars is to generic. Full Fendered cars sounds dorky. They still call dirt late models stock cars and they are nothing but tubes and heim joints nothing stock involved.

Then you would need a new acronym and then if you can't come up with a new s word you would have to change NASCAR to something else. With that you'd have to get everyone to realize that the new thing was still NASCAR and then you have the cost of changing all the things that say NASCAR to something else.

I'm good the ADD just kicked in and i jumped to walleye fishing wasn't paying attention.

If that's the case then why is everybody so hell bent on going back to stuff you can get in the show room. Screw that showroom stuff it's boring I'm into race cars not street cars.
 
Todays "Stock Cars"

:rolleyes:
I've got this vision of Harry Hodge walking around a Toyota Prius "I'm gonna give you an armature low to the ground... extra thick battery tray to cut the wind from underneath you. I'll give you thirty or forty more watts. I'm gonna give you a memory card that'll hold an extra Gigabite. I'm gonna shave half an inch off you and shape you like a bullet. I'll get you primed, painted and weighed, and you'll be ready to go out on that racetrack. Hear me? You're gonna be perfect. Now where the heck do I plug this thing in???"
 
Anyone who want's to see production cars in NASCAR... that's fine. I'll just say ZR1. Again... Team Chevy Rocks!

Not True! In the earliest days of NASCAR, drivers would drive their cars to the track, tape up the headlights, race them and then drive them home.

I will be happy to research this for you if you like...
