Darlington and the "New Car" formerly COT
 

What a great race...

The new car did great. Last real proof to me that it was the right thing to do. Banging off the wall and kept right on going.

I love that the drivers have to actually drive the new car. They have to take care of their tires, not abuse their brakes, they appear to be able to better save spins, and they have to actually modulate the throttle not just mash it down.

Some drivers are whining pretty bad, but F them. It's your Fing job and you get paid well to do it. Shut Up And Drive or somebody else will.

I agree entirely, it's a good step for N'Car

I'm just waiting for Earnhardt to sign with RCR to drive the black #3 car and then all will be right in the world of roundy-rounds.

You think Budweiser would be willing to run a black car? I'm pretty sure Bud's sponsorship is moving with the driver.

Actually, a black and red #3 car would be fucking sweet. :cool:

They could make it work. Their Bud select can is already black.

They've hired Jay-Z as their brand director, and he's already done a commercial with the Jr. All the pieces are in place!!1!one!

I'm a genius and Bud needs to hire me as a guru and pay me millions of dollars.

Yeah that would be really cool.

So the COT makes it so the racers can bump each other a bit more and not loose control? sounds like it will be great for racing.

The one thing and i don't follow nascar much, but the lil i have followed all the drivers and mechanics say they want to move some air splitter up. if they all want that, why don't they just move the damn thing up? one of the races the TV Crew was saying the thought maybe the splitter was cutting tires when they bumped. sounds a bit bad...

Both the splitter and wing are holding up well, and I think those concerns have vanished. They banged the S*** out of them and I don't think they have had a tire cut yet. Up is bad... lets more air in, and messes up what they are trying to control about the suspension.

The whiners want things the way they were. The COT requires a driver to drive, not just point and gas...

what exactly is this COT stuff? just a new material? i dont follow nascar at all.
