Cheating to Turn Left Faster? Nascar 2007
 
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/200...x.html?cnn=yes

Finally, some excitement! LOL

On a serious note the only thing I hope to see happen with Nascar this year is for Dale Jr to tell his mother in law to stick a shifter up her ass, go drive for Childress, and get in the #3 car. That's where he should be driving!

I can say I agree. DEI will fail without him though. He IS the company.

I feel for waltrip. I don't really know the results of what was found in the manifold, but it sounds like it was just oil. If that's the case, they have bigger issues then just that. NASCAR shouldn't really take his crew chief away for the year because of that-seems kinda harsh.

Cheating in Nascar!?! NEVER!

Uhhh, but seriously. That's been the name of the game for as long as Nascar has been around. Bend the rules as much as you can, or straight out cheat if you can get away with it. Their techs are masters of the trade.

HAHAHA, I love it, NASCAR cracking down. Now if only the sport compact NDRA series would pay attention.

What Nascar was originally saying it was was something that would consume oxygen in the cylinder.... Which would be stupid, and NOT make more power.

Then rumor mill started that it was "jet" fuel, which is normally based off of Kerosene, which is highly volatile, and probably not good in a motor that is fighting detonation every step of the way as it is.

If it is "cheating", I want to know what they found, throw it on a DSM intake manifold, and dyno it, to see if it makes any more power on a DiSeM! It just sounds too good to be true to me, lol.

:toiletp:

What NASCAR said is it was an oxygenate. This adds oxygen to the fuel, making it burn more completely with more power if the mixture is correct.

Kerosene is a very stable fuel, that's why it's used in jet fighters.

Couldn't have happened to a better driver!!!

Dale Jr all the way.:drive:

going fast and turning left is for southerners. Watch a real race like F1 or WRC, christ I would rather watch drifting, than that go fast turn left bullshit.

Toyota and cheating seem to go hand in hand from NASCAR to rally to import drag racing.

Say that after you've been to a circle track race.

I dare you as well to say the same after seeing a circle track race in person.

Seriously, come with me to Elko or Cedar Lake (if you like to do it in the dirt) and you will have a good time.

Dirt might be enjoyable, and in person would probably be better, but I cant stand watching it on TV.

Good call! No need to clean stuff when it was a MOD starting drama in the first place. If he wants it cleaned let him do it.

How are we even comparing dirt track racing to NASCAR? They do happen to only turn in one direction, and yes, with cars. Thats about all they share in common. I dont see alot of NASCAR drivers doing full on power slides through corners.

And yes, although growing on me, NASCAR is still for rednecks and their sons-brothers. They use carbs, cmon! How good can it be?

Agreed. I tend to lean towards things more hi-tech. Thats part of the reason I was drawn towards imports to begin with. The power people were extracting out of smaller displacement engines through the use of technology and tuning. I can hear it now..... NASCAR tunes their cars...blah blah... I know, but they also use old crappy technology for some portions to "maintain the roots of their racing."

Most NASCAR driver's start out racing on dirt tracks. When I go to the fall Talladega race Tony Stewart still fields a dirt track car on Friday-Saturday night at the Talladega dirt track.

Tony Stewart also owns a World of Outlaws team, and owns a handful of dirt cars which he sometimes races at local tracks, most notably at Cedar Lake Speedway just across the river in Wisconsin. Many other NASCAR drivers own dirt track teams and/or cars that they race regularly.

Well a guy just crossed the finish line upside down and on fire in the Daytona 500 for 18th place. Works for me!

Ironically it was the 07 car that I saw at the start of the race. They wrote the "7" all funky and I remember thinking it would look exactly like a "20" upside down. Turns out it did. :lol:

The last 40 laps were exciting as hell. Excellent finish! Too bad Martin didn't win.

I caught 3 bits of the race and each time there were crashes. I suppose as the rednecks say, "Rubbin' is racin'."

I agree, would have been cool to see him and Kurt Busch fight it out at the end. Just a racing deal between them though...

Keep in mind they were going over 180mph when they crossed the line like that.
