If you look here : http://aerowarriors.com/nawtables.html
You can see that Ford Torino Talladegas won 29, Mercury Cyclone Spoiler II won 8.
The Daytona Dodge only won 6 and the Superbird won 8.
So it was FoMoCo 37, Chrysler 14! And you usually only hear about how great the "wing" cars were...

I was think that same thing. Daytona and Superbird this, Hemi that. What people fail to realize is that NASCAR changed the rules TWICE to outlaw innovations that Ford had come up with. One was the aero cars and the other was the 427 Cammer engines. But they NEVER outlawed the Hemi, WTF. It just seemed kinda biased to me, but I wasn't alive back then so I will never know for sure. Is it my turn??

I guess that was an answer. LOL. You are correct, although I don't recall all the years they made them, there was infact a Cobra made in Canada. I have seen pics of an 85 and 86 for sure. Green is up again.

in the interest of giving us less knowledgeable on the subjects a fighting chance why dont we reformat this a bit and have mgreene / leroy / and bigred take turns simply asking questions that the rest of us can struggle with .. give a time deadline to discourage stagnantcy ..

Anything else from me comes from the internet. I've learned a lot already from this thread, good stuff!

I do try to let other people answer the questions. There have been several that I knew but passed on to hopefully get others involved. Some are just too juicy to resist though.
