I am not hardcore NASCAR but do like their down to earth nature towards their fans. This is just one example: http://www.nascar.com/en_us/news-media/articles/2013/01/15/danica-patrick-photo-fan-daytona-international-speedway.html Hemps, hxtr, Ruggerxi and 1 other 4

I am curious as to how the aerodynamics might differ between manufacturers. In the old days that was a constant battle as to who had a certain aerodynamic advantage, particularly with the advent of the spoiler. I am pretty sure current testing technology like the wind tunnels will level the playing field.

The Toyota has the best looking car btw in my opinion. About time you can tell the difference. I have a feeling the Dodge will not do as well just from the looks of the front. Like a wall for a bumper.
