i am not sure they might but i guess the 2004 is their innagural season. i just cant believe they are using the celica's, its gonna be weird seeing celica's with thunderbirds, and grandam's etc. Wonder if Honda will introduce the s2000 into the circuit??

far as i know, nascar has always been american cars, they tune those cars to the max and throw them into a circuit, honda, toyota and all the japanese companies has always been small engines, no way they could really pull it off in nascar. i wonder what some of the people think, having a celica in nascar

I think half the reason NASCAR is all American cars is bc its an all-american sport. I personally love NASCAR, but so do thousands of red-necks, and im sure they'd be damned to see a rice burner in victory lane. I also agree with the fact that the american muscle engines are easier to beef up for the circuit, its just like how you dont see any chevys or fords in indy/cart racing, they work on smaller engines with all computers and boosts, its two different worlds the cars compete in.
