NASCAR's Director of Cost Research and Special Projects, Brett Bodine, discusses some of the features of NASCAR's Car of Tomorrow. The Car of Tomorrow will make its debut this weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway.
I just say the safety features. Screw the Splitter and the wings, thats for every other form of racing. I agree about the shape and even worse is that it is made intentionally to slow them down. They could've just used the Tapered spacer the same way they've done with the Nationwide series instead of wasting money on a design that isn't cost efficient, Hasn't brought closer racing, and clearly hasn't been designed with the tire wear in mind.
The one thing I don't get is they could have easily put just the energy absorbing foam, Expansion of the Role bars, and the moving of the drivers seat towards the middle to the current car and it would be just fine. I think this car is a huge mistake and come talladega, everyone will see why.
i guess nascar wont be patenting their adjustable rear wing after all

Don't screw the splitter and the wings: Remember the superbird and the Iroc ;)
That the kind of design I was waited... Then, reduce fuel consumption ;)

To put a splitter and a wing, they have to redesign the old car...
But, I still don't like the front ("aero brick"), and I think the car is a bit to big for the tire.
