i have mixed feelings about this. it was odd when toyota raced in NASCAR, only because NASCAR is an american thing, born out of bootlegging and american ingenuity (read sunday money. best book on NASCAR ever). then again, times change, the new blood might be good for the sport, and ultimately, i think the majority of the folks don't care about the make of the car.

if they raced mistubishis, hondas, fiats, and bmw's, would it still be NASCAR? or is NASCAR only possible with american made cars?

is NASCAR about who makes the car, or is it about how they race, car specs and limits, etc?

there is nothing "stock" in stock car racing today, so does it matter if the non-stock stock car is not american made?

i think if they kept racing the same way they do now, kept the fun and excitement, kept it all NASCAR-y, most fans won't care who built the engine.
