Two CoT questions

[SpeedPagan]

I have two questions regarding the Car of Tomorrow.

1. What is the Front Splitter suppose to do?
2. How is the CoT suppose to be cheaper vs. the old cars?

To answer the second question, the CoT doesn't have as much aerodynamic properties so you can take any car to any track. A few teams brought their Martinsville cars as backup cars at Daytona back in February. You can theoretically use any car at any track, thus meaning you only need a few cars at the shop. No needng to build superspeedway cars, short track cars and etc. The only tracks that are the exception are the road courses.

Thanks for the info! I gotta admit, the CoT is growing on me a bit.

People were always calling it fugly......but I think it is way better looking than the twisted sister and think most have come around now that they are used to it.

The answer to your first question may be....to cut down the tire of an opponent.....or plow the infield grass
