Testing

Will the BAM 49 car be testing also..It seams that it would be a good chance to get a couple more cars on the track...I hope Robby brings at least 2 cars but 4 would be alot better..

Didn't NASCAR mandate something like a fixed 70 degrees on the spoiler? The lack of sideplates will make catching a loose car much more difficult, unless that big fin down the drivers side offsets those.

Kinda like the old cars....lol...the amount of wrecks has SEVERELY decreased with the COT because those darn things never got THAT loose and when they do, they were savable...

I have seen saves at the RP tracks with that COT that prior to 2007 would have caused 20+ car wrecks....

has anyone noticed how many differnt spoilers there are between all the teams?

I wonder if the teams got to make their own for the test before a differrent one will be mandated

For this test...I believe these spoilers were made by the team with Nascar's specs given to them....for the races, I believe they will be handed out by Nascar,...

New spoilers took no time at all to get used to, visual wise.
