Agree with all except the Mustang and Corvette. Both of those are just mad boomer opinions. The Mach-E and the C8 kick ass.

I’m looking forward to NASCAR bringing an exhibition E series. There were rumors it was going to be attempted this year, but pandemic supply issues and the growing pains of the NextGen pushed it out. But most of the teams have EV NextGen Chassis at their shops used for indoor pitstop practice. IMO that will be a much…

SVG has the benefit of knowing how to pilot a heavy IRS car around a street course. None of the CUP guys had that experience. Yes, CUP is still world class. You didn’t see Jenson Button in p2 did you? When SVG joins cup in 2025 I’m sure he’ll be a top runner at the road courses but he’s going to have a steep learning…

Not sure what you were watching but the nascar race was awesome. There was plenty of passing, at least for a street course.

Proprietary infrastructure should be illegal. One of the biggest missteps in the push for EV was allowing companies to have their own proprietary chargers, charging ports, and charging stations.

the kias that are easy to steal are base trim level that have key ignitions. All the push button have RFID.

It impacts lock cylinders with chip keys as well. So unfortunately you’re going to have to skip the bling ring too :(

Yeah they’re not going to remove the restrictors at Daytona and Talladega, but they can run 750+ at every other track. They ran 900 for years without issue in the much less safe Gen 4.

Big L take. Oval racing is great. The road courses are a nice distraction, but Oval is way more fun to watch.

Awesome weekend. I never had much interest in Le Mans but I watched as much as I could because of the G56 car. I really hope more comes of this.
Here is my wishlist. Some crazy, some not:
1. Add headlights and taillights to the cup cars. It just looks too damn good
2. Use the G56 aero package on road courses for nextgen
3.…

Ok. “Worthless” was the wrong word. But they will loose a significant amount of their resale value. Yes it will still do all the things it did before, but now if you go to sell it or trade it will be compared against cars that get much more range. On top of that the resale will not include a tax credit. All of these…

well I didn’t get here by being foolish with my money. I think the tax credits are a good thing to help bridge the gap as we transition technologies, but to me the income cutoff doesn’t make sense since I would otherwise consider the EV, but I’m not going to light $7500 on fire just because.

As I said. I don’t qualify for the tax credit. AGI too high.

Those numbers are pretty incredible and if they achieve even 50% of their targets it will make existing EVs essentially worthless without retrofitting the new battery technology.

It is one of the reasons I just purchased a new ICE car. When doing the math, the premium paid for an electric car will never break even…

Agreed, the lights on the NextGen just made the car look 100x more badass. They should definitely implement this for all makes in cup.

I think it also shows that NASCAR and multiclass racing are not incompatible. It would be really cool to see Cup, Xfinity, & Trucks share the track at Sonoma, Watkins Glen, Circuit of…

The current NASCAR spec NextGens are running 670 hp at slower tracks and 550 at superspeedways. The teams have talked about wanting more horsepower, but they are not currently designing, building, testing the engines to that spec. 750 seems pretty realistic for this 1 off project. A bit more than they are running with…

Missed the very best one. George Washington winning the Revolutionary war in an SRT8 Challenger.
