I wonder if NASCAR has done any testing "without" the restricter plate with the "new generation" car....back when the plate was ruled on the speed exceeded the safety developement of the car but now alot has been done for safety and the absorbing crash barriers...I am think they maybe can let them run wide open....
AS for Toyota...yes, its not just a driver competition, it's a competition between the pit crews, AND the manufacturers.
Wasn't Ford with the Taurus that had an edge in body design for a season where Fords ruled....
