Obama to force Chevy, Dodge out of NASCAR!!!

I believe the Air Force & National Guard sponsor teams also. Those good ol' recruiting tools.

That's right...I remember the Dodge teams actually ran a car that resembled the Intrepid & did so again a few years ago for evaluations because of problems with the Charger body.
Where engines are concerned: Why can't Dodge use the Hemi? It's a stock motor used in regular vehicles. Oh yeah...NASCAR considers that an unfair advantage.
I have to admit, I'm not up on EFI as much as I should be. Do you think going in that direction would cause more headaches for the pit crews? Esp if they have to take the time to hook up a laptop to make adjustments. Any info on this aspect would be appreciated.
Again, I'm probably showing my ignorance here, but why can't the teams run factory bodies on a NASCAR approved chassis with all the safety gear? And again, why can't the engines sold by the factory be used, provided they fall under the 360cid limit? I'm just some dumbass consumer, so what do I know?

Okay - my computer crashed again. While I'm up, here's a kickass car.

Here's a link to the homepage of PlasmaBoys Racing of Portland, Oregon, whose all-electric drag racer "White Zombie" has turned low 11's in the 1/4 mile.

Not a plasma boys product, but here's an electric conversion Mazda RX-7 outrunning a.....Viper.

Electrics can blow away a Ferrari in the 1/4 mile.
