Ford Mustang Officially Confirmed to Enter NASCAR for First Time

sideskrapper - there more to it than building a car that can go fast and do left turns, theres springand shock setup and fine tuning the engine and gear selection.

i dont by that, the level of difficulty of the course is relatively low. Racing in nascar has a high emphasis on fine tuning the vehicle, but most other races have to take in relatively more considerations when they work on tuning i.e. the track

"spring and shock setup and fine tuning the engine and gear selection." yup all stuff that no other racing series have to contend with. not to mention acceleration, deceleration, attitude changes, and the most meaningless of all, turning right.

dimeNickel - In some parts i would agree with you, With DTM and F1 is more advanced than say nascar and rely a lot on aerodynamics and all. But it would appear that your not so clued up on Nascar, if you were you would know that not only is each race track diffrent, due to the fact that banking in the corners and that you have 43 cars running the same engine. so the only way they can be faster than anyone else is by having the best handling car than everyone else. all so running a car for 4 hours, running the same line among other drivers inches apart is extremly stressfully and tiring , so I think no matter what type of racing you doing, be it v8 supercars, dtm, f1, or drag racing, you have to be quite skilled and athletic.
