I'll post the lineup shortly, but it won't have any definitive list of which NASCAR models are allowed as I need to head to out the door soon. Perhaps we should revisit having a Technical Director for the exact reason that Oshawa-Joe first first mentioned back in September.
I'll nominate dabneyd since he's already handling the Tuner Car List and Bowler for reasons such as this.

Oh a word of advice to everyone. While running the races at Daytona turn your sensitivity down low. I know most of us race at 6 or 7, but for this (yes even us wheel users) lowering the sensitivity to 0 makes a world of difference in those long corners. Especially when you're going door to door.

I'll take the job and in the interest of having it done for this week.
2011 Nascar models will be the only allowed models for this weeks racing. For the reasons in the post Zero linked. They are the only group that have the same HP, weight, suspension, and gearing settings. This is, after all, spec racing. You may use the Ford, Chevy, or Toyota versions but they must be 2011 models.

I thought that too, but a couple days ago I was running a bunch of short 10-15 lap races with some friends. I was having trouble being consistent in the corners and my friend told me to lower it. It made a pretty big difference. Could have been mental, but I took my pills that day and Doc says they should fix that.

My Bobs are hating on me I think. Turning laps at Laguna with a NASCAR! That car just rips the competition though. Approaching lap 40 and everyone is already between 3 and 6 laps down.
Sorry, gotta say it like NASCAR, emphasizing it with a redneck accent.

I'm kinda sad to miss this week with the Toyota, I really hope it stays for one more week.

I love watching the Prowler lap the track. Its neat watching the open wheels up front. Has anyone had the pleasure of driving one? its kinda odd watching the wheels turn.

I love not having to break in cars.
While I would much rather pilot one of the Chevys, none of them are broke in, and their paint schemes are, less than desirable. My #43 Fusion has 3k+ miles on it from the Nationwide series I ran in last fall with Owens and after a chassis and motor refresh has 892HP w/ 637PP. Just reset all to default and, unless something changes, will be what I run in D4 on Sunday. May take it out and knock the dust off it and make sure it passes tech inspection in D1 lounge here in a few.
If anyone needs one of these for this week I have them all except the special edition issues. Will be happy to send one on.
Looks like 15 laps for Daytona will hit the 10 minute mark nicely. Coach and I ran 41.9 with just 2 cars. I expect a 4 car train to best that by at least a second, maybe more.
6-7 laps at GP/D
