Yes, you're right Jeff. NASCAR is about money. But the car that won at Atlanta isn't a Toyota. It never saw a single Toyota part, it isn't configured like a Toyota, it isn't even the same size as a Toyota. The same holds true for Ford, GM and Dodge. They are all the same car, just have different decals stuck on them. NASCAR called it "The Car of Tomorrow".
I wonder how long it will be before they give up on trying to make folks believe they are somehow related to what's parked in your garage?
