I just read on Jayski that possibly as soon as 2009 the Series formerly known as Busch will feature Camaro's, Mustang's, Challenger's and a Toyota model yet to be named.

I thought the following part of the announcement was interesting:
A switch to these cars - plus whichever model Toyota chooses to campaign - would make a huge amount of sense, as it would help the Busch Series have its own distinct identity apart from Nextel Cup and help remove the stigma of the series as "Cup Lite," as some call it now. Sources familiar with the project said NASCAR has discussed the idea of switching cars with the manufacturers and has received a positive reception for the idea.(SPEEDtv.com)(9-15-2007)

My gosh, does this mean that someone at NASCAR Central, in Daytona, actually listens to what the fans want to see?

This, my good friends, could be B-I-G!

Even Jayski is playing tricks on us now. This just cannot be true. Wait 'til Brian finds out !!!!!

Probably not; it makes way too much sense. However, everything look authentic. I think the use of the term "Cup Lite" shows the distaint that many hold the current situation.

We can do nothing but hope.

I've read about this in a ton of other places, it is true. And I can't wait to see how they take this idea and screw it up like they always seem to.

This has some real nice potential. Could actually perhaps get some, not a lot but some, "stock" appearances back in play. Would seem key will be a move to tracks where aero is of little consequence. A top level short track series. Worth hope and watching.
