I'm betting NASCAR fucks with it before it reaches competition. Things like the rear bumper lip rising up and a lot of the rear detailing doesn't seem like a good fit with the stupid plate track rules they're dishing out now.

The Nascar Fusion looks really good. It's a very easy car to identify on the track. I'm glad that some brand identity is coming back into Nascar.

Regarding, Roush's Nationwide team. I read something the other day that Roush might be close to getting a sponsor for one of his Nationwide cars. I hope what I read ends up happening because if any unsponsored Nationwide team out there that can give a sponsor exposure by running up front every week, it's Roush-Fenway Racing.


I think they touched on that during the testing coverage. Apparently Jack Roush paid most of the bills last year but wasn't willing to do the same this year. It's a real shame that KBM didn't go for a fresh young talent. Kyle should have let Kurt struggle on his own. But I guess he felt sorry that Kurt did lose his job while Kyle was lucky enough to have Gibbs let him stay.

I like the new car, the rear looks more like a real car. Hopefully they can put it on the track like that.

That's by miles the best looking thing I've seen since the introduction of the COT rectangles. Hope it doesn't get messed with too much before the start of the season as it looks seriously good.

I actually like the way the new Ford looks. Hope the other manufacturers can do similar things with their designs.

As good as that car looks in white, I think it looks even better in black. That nose on a black car almost looks menacing.

Didn't expect the 2013 Ford Fusion to turn out the way it did. Really like it!

That's how a stock car should look like.

Jack Roush all but confirmed Stenhouse would be defending his Nationwide title (ie. running fulltime) on Sirius a couple of weeks ago.

EDIT: Too bad Roush didn't have the Con-Way Freight sponsorship still, it'd look fucking amazing on the new Ford.

I'd be cool with this.

Sadler Hoping For Daytona 500 Start: Elliott Sadler confirmed that talks are underway to put him in a Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet for the 2012 Daytona 500. "I've said before if I got chance to be in competitive Cup car again, I would jump at the chance," said Sadler in an exclusive interview with SiriusXM NASCAR Radio's Sirius Speedway with Dave Moody. "Richard Childress and I have had some conversations, but what we really need is sponsorship, We're getting close to getting that done, but there's nothing done yet. I can't confirm anything right now, but I am damn sure pulling for it to happen." RCR will field full-time Sprint Cup Series entries in 2012 for drivers #31-Jeff Burton, #29-Kevin Harvick and #27-Paul Menard, but has an additional guaranteed starting spot in the first five races of this season; earned a year ago by Clint Bowyer's #33 Chevy. Sadler is expected to wheel the #33, if a financial backer can be found.(sirius-speedway.com)(1-25-2012)
