    I see the Legacy B4 but what about the Legacy After picture.

    A NASCAR Flat 8 would be pretty cool...at least to horizontally opposed fanboys like me. #boothprofessionals

    i would be careful what you wish for, when Nissan entered the australian touring cars and whipped ass with godzilla their winners were literally booed off the winners podium.
    the problem with the general public is that they are morons....

    @jbownsabmw- Koopas Beware: I rely on Nibbles to leaf through Jalop's pages for crucial content.

    However, I'm thinking I may need to go back and bookmark a Daihatsu page as well. #boothprofessionals

    Nascar no longer races "Stock Cars". Every team uses the same "car of tomorrow" chassis, with just slightly different skin. Notice they even changed the name of the series to "sprint cup" to reflect this fact. Saves the teams millions not having to develop chassis.

    It looks like the direction NASCAR is headed... if they decide to adopt a more F1-like aero approach. Hell, they're bringing in fuel injection so it's possible. Only problem I see is that they'd be even more aero-sensitive (the dreaded aero push) than they are today.

    And for all those who insist on bashing NASCAR, keep it up. We'll still tune in to watch one of the 2 best covered, most competitive forms of motorsports in the world. Just like you'll continue to get on the internet and try to find new and creative ways to insult NASCAR and its fans. :D #boothprofessionals

    Pit crew! Hah!

    You'd have them ridiculously losing every race, as pit angel #1 slowly, slowly tightens the lug nuts, long hard wrench in hand, langourously stretches to pick up the next and oops! dropped one of those lug nuts and it rolled under the car!!! darn it! and now she crouches down on her hands and knees and she shifts her bottom left and right as she peers right and left in the dark underside looking for it ooh there it is! stretch and they're cheering themselves hoarse in the stands while meanwhile pit angel #2 struts across the asphalt fuel hose over shoulder and she just teases the nozzle into the filler it's almost in it's in but not quite roll it around the opening and then a couple playful pushes but it's still not quite in and the pressurized fuel can't flow into the car as it wants to so very badly and she throws her head back and opens her lips and closes her eyes and the clock is ticking and the crowd all hoarse and the driver stares with wide eyes dilated pupils bated breath tense fifth strap and all the crowd are delirious too #boothprofessionals

    @NewbiusMaximus: Sorry, that comment was a fail, IMO... too blatant & no real wit attached to the innuendo. I almost didn't reply to this, simply because doing so might promote the whole thread, but I thought it might be worth a chime-in just to point out to three newbs in a row that this kind of thing usually doesn't win many fans here.

    Snark is good; a little bit of innuendo combined with snark or real wit can be great; but something that looks more like a script segment from a bad 70's porn movie is pretty much an epic fail.

    And, FWIW, that's - of course - just my personal opinion, based on what I've seen that seems to win fans here - it's certainly not my place to tell you what to do or not to do - I'm just passing along some input as to what might be deemed acceptable here and what might be thrown into the "Meh" bucket. #boothprofessionals

    @HoonThatFerrari - Once Again w/Star - Always on the Edge, Baby!: Taking things too seriously, much?

    FWIW, I've been here for a quite a while, long enough to not be a "newb". Just because you have a star doesn't make you any more 'experienced' than the rest of the commenters. I suppose you've missed the whole Megan Fox saga and the COTD babes.

    NASCAR, no.

    Better racing in the US, yes.

    Cars like this racing in the states, absolutely.

    hot chicks, fantastic.

    no NASCAR.

    I think I read on crash.net or somewhere the other day that there might be a few touring car races on North American soil next year. Maybe NASCAR fans or the France family will see these races and try and mess with their proven racertainment series by making the vehicles and technology relevant. Oh wait, I said NASCAR. It doesn't need to be relevant because the drivers have great personalities! #boothprofessionals
