Not being up to speed on NASCAR and such - does that mean they will not be using the Chevrolet SS as previously announced or was that for a different NASCAR stock car series? All the news articles I had found from awhile ago was saying that Chevrolet/GM picked to use the Chevrolet SS instead of the Camaro.

So it's a generic tube frame car with stickers that resemble Camaro lights? Hard to get excited about that kind of "racing". Let's go back to cars right out of the showroom, throw some numbers on them and a cage in them, and let them battle it out! That's what I would watch.

EDIT: I just saw the pics of the NASCAR "camaro" in question -- DAMN that thing is ugly! I'm embarrassed that the Camaro name is on it. Did you see that hideous side view??? Last edited by Kent2010; 07-26-2012 at 12:20 PM. |
