@William im not blindly hating, I appreciate NASCAR for what is is, motorsports. I just don't like some of the politics behind it with the lack of direct connection to production vehicles on the road today.
I could see this happen: "WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE CHANGED SPONSORS?" LOL!!!
After watching this video, I feel like wrapping cars is easy. They make it look easy but I know for a fact that's is hard and takes a lot of patience to get the correct grooves.
For the most part, all teams use vinyls for just about every single race, with the exception of the Daytona 500. I know just a handful of teams actually paint the cars instead of wrapping it. Hendrick has his cars painted. Paint is thinner than wrap.
NASCAR is not for everyone. I like a lot of forms of Motorsports, but I'm not going to bash on the ones I don't like. Although I like road racing, it just bores the hell out of me. I watch the beginning and end with bits of the middle thrown in.
And to say NASCAR doesn't require skill is just plain ignorant to say. Where are all the other drivers from other disciplines of Motorsports? Clearly if NASCAR doesn't require skill they would come in and dominate... So where are they?
Agreed most rules in place today are there to help the smaller teams out and to make the car as safe as possible for the drivers. Even gt3 cars are not cars they've bought from dealerships, but heavily modified look a likes.
To be fair, back in those days only the body was factory stock. The engines, suspensions and transmissions were still hand built by the racing teams. That's why most only had one car and couldn't afford to race the entire schedule.
Old school NASCAR was cool with the actual cars that were sold in dealerships. Wasn't the old motto 'Race on Sunday, Sell on Monday'? Can't really buy a RWD V8 Fusion off the lot.
Good point William but I'm still a fan of seeing actual body panels of cars I can actually buy (RWD V8 Camry?) like in GT3; tho heavily modded and with right turns. You still get the importance of driver skill and car setup.
Done* meeting the coors light twins were of course the high light for the day. Who btw are not as hot as the TV commercials. But they were extremely intelligent, unexpected surprise...
Well don William, I couldn't have explained it better. Most people don't understand what goes into NASCAR. I didn't until I actually went to Ganassi racing at Lake Norman, NC back in 2003 and to my first race that same year in ATL.
Dang I'm going to have to buy a Camry if they are fast enough to compete in Nazcar!
That's why all the 2013 sprint cup cars actuay look like there road going models more then last year, and lights on the exterior of cars is banned in NASCAR so there is no reason for them to be real and add unnessecary weight
NASCAR rules used to own then entire body, it used to be every pannel on the car had to have a certain drag coefficency witch made them all look the same, this was done just like everything else in NASCAR to even the playing field, was done so a race was decided on the driver, pit crew and the car set up, every car started out with the same performance, but owners wanted this changed and now NASCA...
Do u even understand why the shell look the way they do? Or u just blindly hating ?
respect for the wrappers, but those fake headlamps and the fact that they call that thing a Camry are enough to make me strongly dislike NASCAR
That is such a good video, it does however look like a lot of skill and a steady hand is needed to do this well :)
Alex is the perfect example of ignorance personified. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean you have to be a troll. You don't like it then just move along, why is that such a hard concept for people.
And your ignorant trash that knows nothing about NASCAR besides a sterotype
NASCAR is stupid. A bunch of rednecks driving in a circle in cars with no resemblance to the car they're based on.
