Toyota, in my opinion, would kick the crap out of Dodge, Chevy, or Ford in NASCAR. I think the sport is afraid of a superior product invasion. Who's with me?

Well NASCAR is a joke anyway. It should be brought back to "Stock" car racing. Not these over engineered piles that have little mechanical similarities to their production models.
Stock chargers, monte carlos and fusions look nothing like a race car.
Bring back the 60's when the car that was raced on Sundays was able to be bought on Mondays.
Oh and Toyota superior product invasion? Please...

Well Next year is the first year for the Toyota Camry in Nascar. But a Foreign car has won a nascar event before. Jaguar in the 1950s raced in Nascar. Fourteen other manufacturers have found victory lane at NASCAR’s highest level.

Technically it's been in NASCAR since 2000 in the Goody Dash Series, which is kinda the Triple A of NASCAR racing. Not only that but it has also won a championship title. The Camry will enter the 2007 season in the Nextel Cup (or Sprint Cup) Series and has been in the Craftsman Truck Series since 2004.

I think it's a very stupid idea to bring toyota into nascar but that's ok at least my driver will still be driving a chevy. I used to be a mikey fan but since he left DEI and now he'll be driving toyota next year....picking a new driver lol
F1 racing sucks, I can't sit and watch it on Tv and I will always watch nascar even after jeff retires. Heck I am even going to try to get my son into racing......

They're already in, if you look closely. Dodge is owned by the German company that makes Mercedes.
We'll see how Toyota does when they enter the Busch and Cup series next year. I think they'll do OK, maybe even luck up and win a race their first year (It'll be the Red Bull team). They're already winning races in the Craftsman Truck series.

NASCAR is a joke. Foreign car makers spend their money on better motorsports, such as F1 and Rally events.
When GM and Ford go bankrupt, so will NASCAR.
Just try watching an F1 or Rally even on Speed channel, and you will never watch a NASCAR race again.

Toyota will have 2 cars next year driven by Dale Jarret and Michael Waltrip. So keep your eyes open for the Napa and UPS cars in 07

Because Nascar is All-American. And if you watched Nascar you would know that Toyota is coming to Cup next year! In my beliefs Montoya shouldn't come to Nascar because he is foreign!!

NASCAR started out with good ole boys racin their street cars. For many years this has been a primarily American sport. Toyota is coming to NASCAR next year and to be honest I am not happy about it.
Keep it American boys!
