NASCAR Drivers are Unhappy With the Car of Tomorrow

NASCAR Drivers are Unhappy With the Car of Tomorrow

The Car of Tomorrow was NASCAR Research and Developments design to help protect it's drivers from serious injuries and worse during the inevitable multi-car incidents that occur during a 36 race season.
The Car of Tomorrow was introduced at the Bristol Motor Speedway, a half-mile track because the top-speeds attained are 40% less than those at a Superspeedway like Daytona, so that aerodynamics would be less of a factor.
But the drivers are complaining of a lack of "downforce" on the racecars, that is created by the aerodynamic characteristics of the car's design and can be altered by changing the shape of the front "splitter" and the wing on the back of the car.
The drivers are also complaining about how the new cars handle in the turns. This was just the first race with Kyle Busch in a Chevrolet engined car winning, so with thirty-one races to go they will have the opportunity to make the cars work better. Click this text link:

I am always looking for new artists with original music, so I started a site to present new artists and bands.
I realize that not everybody has a "High-Speed Internet Connection" so I use fast text-links to take you to a page where you can choose from among different artists and Click their music link. The top-secret server will then open a fast-loading page with a little playe window. No special media-player needs to be downloaded, you can then select from the four songs listed.

The Car of Tomorrow's design was the result of the loss of NASCAR racing legend Dale Earnhardt.
