Tired of the same old Chevy, Toyota and Ford donning their cowboy hats and redneck shirts? Let’s add some ‘extras’ to NASCAR.

DISCLAIMER!

All of these cars follow the price/production rule. It would still be cool if these cars were in NASCAR.

Aston Martin

Wouldn’t it be epic to see a V8 Vantage racing around an oval? Some more awesome models-

Vanquish

Ever seen a Vanquish in person? I gotta say, the only ones I have seen are convertibles, but they still look amazing. That front splitter would do so many things to NASCAR viewers.

DB9

This is my opinion, but the whole car doesn’t look nearly as good as the Vanquish’s splitter. But still, it’s an extremely gorgeous car.

Alfa Romeo

Ahhh, Alfa. NASCAR needs red, and Alfa can supply it.

4c

Looks fast and grippy, like a track demon, but car reports say it sucks. Don’t yell at me for saying that, a lot of magazines have. But nothing a good NASCAR tune-up can’t do.

Donkervoort

No explanation needed.

D8 GTO

Who wouldn’t watch NASCAR if this was tearing up the track? So many people would go to the oval to watch one of these blaze the competition. Profits would be tripled!

Ferrari

488 Spaniel Edition

I don’t like the styling of the May that much, but the 488 Spaniel would do just fine.

FF

“Hey, where did all this red paint come from? Oh....”

Jag-you-are

The best sounding cars ever come from England. It’s a known fact.

F-Type

Just imagine a full lineup of eargasmic sounds. Ever heard one rev in person? Those exhaust pops when the revs are decreasing sound amazing.

XF-RS

( Four-door Exception- There was a four-door Taurus in NASCAR, so this one may be eligible to enter, even though 200 were made? ) This car has 100x the eargasm than the F-Type. And only in person. Everyone, if you have heard one IN PERSON , describe your experience. I got the amazing chance to see this exact color in person, and oh my god. Nothing sound better. Period.

Koenigsegg

This may not be fair. But we don’t care.

Regera

Hmm. Looks exciting. And expensive.

!!! UNKNOWN HEADER TYPE (MULTI-LINE BREAK?) !!!

Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, and nope.

If price and rarity is not an issue, than this NASCAR would be a lot better than the old NASCAR.

The current NASCAR is doing just fine. No need to put European cars in an American motorsport series.

1. NASCAR requires the street version to be manufactured in the United States.

2. See #1.

3. Nope.

Fun fact Jaguar has a Nascar win and I’d rather see chrysler return.

Also, they don’t need this because that’s why NASCAR has the United Sportscar Series.

So you’re saying you’d turn “stock car” racing back to “stock car” racing?

What a novel idea. Maybe turn right?

I'd watch

It’s too boring!

No, no turn right. But F-Type exhaust cam. Mmmmm.

Then watch a touring car or a WEC race.

This is United Sportscar on crack, LSD, heroin, and Sweden.

Well, alter the rules and have a lot of fun.

How about just adding more right turns?

From 0 to 1?

James May NASCAR, tho.

No specific number, just more.

Racing on more road courses rather than ovals would accomplish my suggestion.

Jdrentarol > ADabOfOppo; Gone Plaid (Instructables Can Be Confusable) 01/21/2016 at 11:32

But then it would be GT racing.

No. It would be the American version of the Aussie V8 Supercars series.

I fail to see any negatives in this proposal.

ZOMG! The 4C was one of the best cars I drove last year. Not quite Top Two after the NP01 and the 458, but...BUT! It’d be a solid #3. Like a fat Lotus. It’s great. Simply great. Wish it came with a manual, but still fun regardless.

Those reports must have been written by people who were wrong, heh.

C&D said “it drives like it’s on rails. The ones blown up by the allies.” And that is a direct quote. They said that in their Top10Cars of 2015 ( which the 4c did not make )
