Wow that was worth the watch for the music alone. The sweet jumps, random explosion and dori dori action were just bonuses

IT would def. be cool to see today's family haulers get slammed and roll cage'd up to battle to the death.

Demolition Derby, you mean.

In NASCAR there is. Just not so much in the Grand National or Sprint Cup class. But NASCAR has lower classes that do require production bodies and chassis. Like NASCAR Pure Stock: http://www.toyotaspeedwayatirwindale.com/rules/ps.pdf

Of course there used to be 4 cyl Baby Grand National cars that were mostly foreign stockers (like the Datsun 200SX), as well as a few other series.

Yes, and I tried explaining that to a NASCAR fan once that was upset about "the furriners" aka Toyota being allowed into "racing."

I didn't get very far.
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

In my mind it would imply that there would have to be a production car available with a racing car's brakes.  :rockon:

That might get interesting in cold weather.
