Car of tomorrow
Not that i follow NASCAR that closely but for anyone that does have you seen the new car of tomorrow? I think that it looks ugly. But, i guess that they do need carbon fiber wing and a front lip kit.

RE: Car of tomorrow
the wing serves a purpose: downforce.
it actually has less downforce than the traditional nascar wings, but nascar intentionally designed them that way to slow the cars down a bit.
last year's nascar wings had tremendous downforce that allowed cars to reach upwards of around 200 mph on straights, which is rediculous considering how aggressive nascar drivers are.
and the splitters on the front are something that other race series have been using for years.
i actually like the look of the new cars. it's rice-fully purposeful. lol.
