People-organizations have always done stupid stuff for a buck, TF--Toyota on valve cover of a Hemi engine. If you're 60 or older it cuts real bad.

Do you mean Hemi on the cam cover of a Mitsubishi engine?

BTW ... Is Dodge okay given that it is an Italian company that makes Challengers in Canada?

This whole deal remains stunning to me. True icons of the sport (with Big being at the top of course) running in a Camry with a wrap. With the “big” three all supporting the NHRA you’d think Challengers, Mustangs and Camaros tuned to be close in performance (aka the old ROC format) would be appealing. Heck, even NASCAR convinced Toyota to retire the Camry and use the Supra brand for their top series (not that many of younger set even know what a Supra is). Now they’re having a fan vote to determine matchups.

If they get several thousand votes then you know our sport is officially on life support. On the other hand, if people can vote for write ins and Jussie Smollett or Lorena Bobbitt get several votes then we know that the spirit of Monty Python lives on and with a sense of humor we can survive the farce after all.
