Back in the sixties, pure two seater race cars thinly disguised as road cars ruled endurance racing. There was plenty of style because the manufacturers wanted an identifiable car, race on Sunday - sell on Monday kind of thing. Of course this was before "equalization" and balancing technolgical advantges across the board became the vogue.
Now you can only tell Stock Cars apart by the headlight decals and logos, no idea on Daytona prototypes and F1 isn't much better. So what's the answer?
I do like the LMP cars and GT2 and Touring Car because you can identify with the cars.
What about Nascar going back to stock sheet metal, or build your tube frame stock car inside a "body in white". Run what you brung, race what you sell, sell what you race.
Geeze, where'd I put those friggin rose coloured glasses!
What was wrong with Plymouth Superbirds, Torino Talledegas, fastback Monte Carlos?
Nothing, plus I think they were faster than todays template identical, wind tunnel proven, 700hp+ Car of Today.
Ok, the Superbirds were kinda ugly, but nothing like a Daytona Prototype or the current Nascars. Cheers
