Also, only loser's complain. Winner's don't have time for it.
So in regards to this NASCAR situation, don't make up excuses for the American Auto Makers. Maybe if Toyota keeps spanking them in NASCAR, Americans will get better products from them. Don't expect any of us here to chastise Toyota for making more HP than the others.. If anything, we will chastise the American Auto makers and tell them we are fed up with being in last place all the time from the factory..

NASCAR cuts Toyota horsepower in Nationwide Series
NASCAR issued a technical bulletin Tuesday amending the Nationwide Series Rule Book. Effective as of July 23, 2008, section 20A – 5.10.4 is amended as follows:
“At all Events, unless otherwise specified, all engines with a cylinder bore spacing less than 4.470 inches must compete using a tapered spacer with four (4) 1.125-inch diameter holes. At all Events, unless otherwise specified, all engines with a cylinder bore spacing of 4.470 inches or more must compete using a tapered spacer with four (4) 1.100-inch diameter holes. Unless otherwise authorized, the carburetor restrictor will be issued by NASCAR.”
“Eventually, all teams that upgrade to new engine packages will be subject to this rule modification,” said Robin Pemberton, NASCAR vice president of competition. “Over the years in our sport, we’ve taken steps on numerous occasions to help maintain a level playing field among our competitors and we will continue to do so.”(NASCAR PR)(7-23-2008)
