    thats a pretty dumb comment to make, from a spectator standpoint restrictor plates making it a little more boring due to less accidents but they are enstated for safety purposes, to save lives. and toyota has as much business in nascar as any other manufacturer.

    ya back in the ole days the drivers jumped in their toyota to transfer moonshine.. ****ing smart. and restrictor plates can make things MORE dangerous, think about it all 43 cars all "equal" traveling in a pack at 180 mph.. i can see how that is less dangerous.. more people around at high speeds

    funny that nowhere in the nascar regulations does it state that manufacturers car's had to have been used in carrying moonshine to race. and yes its safer to have alot of drivers running 180mph than 210mph, and it also levels out the playing field so the bigger pockets dont have quite the advantage that they would with an unlimited engine race. your arguments arent very well thought out.

    ya but there weren't toyota's from the beginning so they shouldn't be there now. notice i said they CAN make things more dangerous, both ways have less room for mistake, but one has the higher chance of having more people involved (restrictor plates). About making it fair? thats also stupid, who said it should be fair and why? let the strongest survive...


    either way nascar only gets worse and worse, hopefully we can agree on that one
