When I saw the COT for the first time, The first thing that came to mind, Yes I do have one and sometimes it gose off before I wright.  Anyway The first thing that came to me and only cause Im across the pond for now is.  The v8 supercars that race from  Austraila.

This series has been going from 1969, Goodyear ! till present. 32 drivers for 17 teams all with 2 drivers each but one with 3 drivers. I like the way they race on a weekend. Practice on Friday, Saturday they qualify in morning and have first race of 3 in afternoon. Sunday they have 2 race's and most are 30 to 40 laps depending on track and yes they are road cousres. They do get away with alot of bumping and running and the driver seem tobe ok with most of it cause they know you got too do alittle to move up. The best thing about this series is they got the grid girls.   Sorry No pictures for you of them.,, welllll mmaayybbee 1.

I know wheel base is smaller and car etc, but with the new lower front spoiler and high rear, The only thing missing is the sponsors to cover everything up.

Heres one I did with a mix.

 

It makes me wonder if NASCAR is  trying to make the COT , to look like other race series  cars from around the wourld. They say how they want to reachout to other counrtys ? Here is another series car too and look how close it is.

 

I do like the crom wheels look.

Here is the Bud with some Keystone Classic's.

ok, ok ill give you another one.

They also know how to promote the series tire brand.

Now  don't say I didn't give you guys something pleasant to look at besides racecars Sorry to the few ladys on here.  Like I said it was at first glance. Going by 16 cars being a lap down on lap 79 of  267 and at finish 4 drivers being 1 lap down and 5 two laps down is very sad for  NASCAR.

Godbless for those who do and takeacre for those who don't. Cheers.

I said this after the Bristol race about how Marcos will be rubbing his hands together, Forensic....old news for me though you'll probably get more comments than I did, lol

I presume that the black car is one from DTM?

photo; you doofus, the black car isn't a V8 Supercar, lol

I think it's from the German DTM Series (it looks like an Opel, that's all)

Tez: That just goes to show ya. Ain't never seen an Opel look like that.Considering it has been 35 years since one made an appearance here no wonder.

Odd looking back end though ( the car). Looks like the left rear fender is comming off. Break out the templates..

I think NASCAR skips on the grid girls since they have a rolling start so it might be a tad dangerous....for the drivers since they won't be concentrating on where they're supposed to be driving to, LOL!

If they look like the one here, over half the fans in the stands will be watching the grid gals too.

Tez, I know the black car is from another series. You must have been drooling so much you mist that part. lol.
Photo - NASCAR did have a Miss Winston, but all the drivers would end up hitch to one and than taken to the cleaners, Jeff Gordon comes to mind. I even think she had try to get future winnings added to the pot, Jeff said no way. Im the one risking my life out on the track.
