The COT is J.U.N.K. It won't, and isn't fast(er) after NasCar (Zieg Hiel) down sizes the restrictor plates for the super speedways. This is nothing more than a knee jerk reaction to "Opie" AKA Carl Edward's wrecking himself trying to win and landing on top of Ryan Newman's # 39 and tearing the fence up. If they want to increase safety move the finish line instead of slowing the COT down. This rule will only increase cheating by car chiefs & engineers, end up in more suspensions. The way it is the fuel size and the fuel is dictated (Sonoco) the tires are dictated (GoodYear) the spoilers are handed out by NasCar, shocks have to be tested, restrictor plates are issued & owned by NasCar....where does it stop. NasCar equals one for one and all for one. The France family has to be damned sure they get paid. If they were cut out, the tickets would be cheaper, the teams could "Run what they brung" build their own cars cheaper. And PLEASE burn those cheezy templates for inspection issued by NasCar, this is complete and total NasCar BS. The COT is not more durable than the previous version, when they wreck they get just as destroyed as the last version, the front splitter which is policed by NasCar is nothing more than a NasCar issued GoodYear rear tire killer and everybody knows it. There's more than enough evidence to can this COT is nothing more than a rolling junkpile. I think it should be called NCRJ instead of the COT. NasCar: Can this car, mind your own business, quit sticking your hand in the cookie jar, stop being the "Hitler" of NasCar and get a real job, stop killing "OUR" sport, that's right, we pay for it, it's our sport! Nuff said. RG Jim:

The most Popular driver in NASCAR has spoken, and does not like the COT. And most fans do not either. I have been to over 50 Daytona 500 races and, more races all over, but Quit going.TO POOR RACES!! POOR RACES. The hand writing should be on the wall by now.

Auto makes had to produce 1000 cars to sell for the team to race it. Along came the Road Runner for one. The cars looked like the ones in the showroom. I got use to seeing Ned Jarret's race car on a flatbed truck in the front yard three houses down from me. You were invited by the team to go to the race shop and just walk in to talk to the team. It was a crude set up but they won races with STOCK cars. All before it got so high tech, glad I got to enjoy that time in racing.

I'm hoping Nascar will listen to the fans someday before it's too late. I'm all for the safety part but some things were fine before "the change". Why'd they do it anyway? Don’t like it, never have.

The races are boring up until the last 20 laps and that is ONLY IF one or two cars didn't lap all the others and we have a BIG 12-15 (?) on the lead lap! I have talked with others & if NASCAR goes down it will be due to the quality of the racing. The drivers do not have any wiggle room for change, if they bump each other - they get fined and I am getting sick of DW & Larry Mac's "good ole days" stores over & over. Can't NASCAR do something with this nice safe car to add a little "spark" - give the teams more leeway or ????? Unfortunately as much as I love NASCAR I have to agree with Marie!

I am NOT a fan of this car, no matter what it's called. I think this car is the biggest reason the races are so boring. Who wants to watch 43 cars circling a race track spread out like they are? This is not racing; it's just a bunch of cars following one another around the track. Between these cars and DW's and Larry Mac's mouthiness, NASCAR is going down the drain.
