Chrysler Pulls out of NASCAR

Carl Juliano · 08-08-2012, 07:32 PM

I wouldnt be surprised if Honda came into Nascar soon. The whole thing is a disgrace.

I call it NAPCAR because I can"t watch a race with out falling asleep.If their is no"big wreck" you might as well watch the grass grow!

Don't you love it. A Honda or Toyota with 358 CID, super trick, all titanium, 850 hp 9500 rpm motor made in America in a COT made in America. The only thing Honda will be the decals and the increase in budget to the team owner. Course now you got Toyota AA/FC with 500 CID, Nitro fueled, 8000 HP all made in America, or the Toyota on the side of a Top Fuel Dragster. As Sheriff Buford T. Justice would say "What is the world comin to."

The COT was dropped a couple years ago already.....

The present cars are nowhere near the same.

No wing....different splitter.....A lot different....

If you don't like Nascar.....don't watch it...

I do like it and have for many years.

Way more entertaining than watching John Force race Don Schumacher....

People I worked with for years work in Nascar engine shops and have for many years.

I enjoy it.....and always have.......sadly not as much as when the #3 was out there and thats for dang sure.....

The "3" is starting to make it's come back with a really good young driver. I'm also a big fan. Lots of technology in those big boats.

I'm a NASCAR watcher simply because those beasts on small tires are probably the most demanding race car to drive anywhere, granted the Rally cars are a handful but the big cars are so evenly matched that very small adjustments often spell the difference. Even with Dodge gone I'll continue to watch a few races a year, particularly Sonoma and the Glen.

the money will to F1, here is a pic of the new dodge

Doubt Fiat will be putting money saved from nascar pullout into a nonexistant Formula! team . Looks more like the benefits did not justify the costs . Racing is a business , the bottom line rules ..

I agree with you Carl, and next Nissan will somehow get their Maxima out there too...

I'm hoping Daimler brings out a Schmart Kar for NASKAR. They can use an AMG V8 for power if they can fit it in there somewhere?
