Hi Racers!..

I have just been watching nascar on television, and it has triggered an idea..

I have been wondering for some time...

Would a nascar championship series be a good idea for LFS??

LFS actually has a stock car series:

XSCC - XRT Stock Car Cup. It's going to start on the 21st.

XRT on oval = awesome lol. Plus there'll be AU short track ovals as well

+1 Great fun.

and im still on the reserve list... it won't let me put myself in the normal list.

Why are NASCAR cars called "stock" cars? They are everything but stock cars.

The way I see it,

stock cars have gained another meaning. In which it means "heavily regulated" or standardized racing (not much mechanical freedom). After all, Superleague Formula is called a "stock" formula racing... so what the hell is a stock formula if you take the literal definition of the word

Stock Car Brasil is also called "stock cars" and yet they aren't stock in the literal definition of the word either.

Also, back in the old days they were essentially slightly modded showroom floor cars.

Not cars, boats

Don't forget that Bob Smith has just brought out an early version of a Nascar Physics Mod, perhaps something can be done with this?
