Check out this new race car – built for Camaro Cup in Sweden – but also suitable for NASCAR Nationwide Series!
The car was successfully tested by Grand-Am driver Nic Jonsson.

Pretty cool. Now all I have to do is get my direct TV set up so I can see the series.

I can't imagine that the "void" where the grille is would be good for aerodynamics.

HEY NASCAR, that is how you do a race car to fit a template and STILL look AWESOME!! I hope they're taking notes...

Tantalizer43 · 08-21-2009, 10:21 AM

That car will never fit NASCAR's common body template...

Face it, Camaro in NASCAR would be hideous.. look at the mustang Ford is going to race...

Scrapppy666 · 08-21-2009, 10:31 AM

this looks better than the Mustang at least, but still not great

CamaroSkooter · 08-21-2009, 10:34 AM

You think NASCAR would allow exterior rearview mirrors like that?

Chevrolet told NASCAR they will not be submitting a Camaro for competition.

It is true that that NASCAR wants Chevrolet to race the Camaro, but it is not true that Chevy is planning it.

I agree 100% with GM's decision. I am a huge NASCAR fan, but the Camaro's most unique feature is it's styling. Why take that styling away with a common body template while trying to market the vehicle.

Thankfully, it is NOT a reality....
