And the Mustang was no slouch during today's practice session. Three Jack Roush cars were in the top 10. Reed Sorenson led the practice session in a toyota with the fastest speed of 188.111. BrIan Ickler was second quick in a Roush Mustang at 187.903. Carl Edwards was 6th quickest.

Better than nothing. I remember in the late 60's (i'm old) race teams would buy their cars from dealerships then get them race ready (roll cages, engines, springs etc) at their race shops

I know I'm in the minority, but I like the way the car looks..at least in comparison to the Sprint Cup cars. I'm a huge fan of NASCARs history. I don't see a way to ever go back to using showroom stock cars converted into racers. Maybe someone should start a "stock car" series that would bring back those good 'ol days, but it would be tough. The first time a driver got hurt or killed there would be lawyers lining up to sue.

I don't think that Nascar should go back to showroom stock cars. I do think that they should have stock-appearing sheetmetal on their tube-frames. Give them a strong visual connection to the street cars that the manufacturers are selling. And I think the manufacturers agree.

Does anyone remember the saying, "Win on Sunday, sell on Monday."?
Refers to the fact that stock cars used to be stock cars and a customer could personally identify with a specific manufacturers car because they WERE the car you could buy.
