What effects will the bankruptcies of GM and Chrysler have on NASCAR?

With the COT being virtually the same regardless of manufacturer, I don't think it will affect the sport that much.  The teams that have money, Hendrick, Roush, Gibbs, will continue to dominate even without manufacturer support.

the only winning cars will be Ford and Toyota

Jeff Gordon will still be gay.

Carl Edwards will be an "aww shucks" nice guy wrapped around a whining bitch.

Tony Eury Jr. will still be the worst crew chief in the sport (until they fire his ass).


These are things that will not change.

It's only a matter of time before the "Big Three" are replaced by Toyota, Honda and Nissan. Mark my words, I give it 5 years.

The GM car will have a huge smiling Obama plastered on the hood.

One of the big rumors flying around right now has Roger Penske buying Saturn.

If that does happen, we'll see Saturn racing in NASCAR and probably IRL and Grand Am, too.

It will hurt but NASCAR is basically running a common chassis now on all cars with the COT they can go to a spec engine if they have to. And NASCAR survived for 20 years with only two manufactures, GM and Ford with their various name plates.

The bankruptcies have potential to hurt smaller series much more that NASCAR. NASCAR can survive it some of the other may not.

Oh yea Kyle Petty Jr. er I mean Dale Jr. is out of excuses now.

Don't worry Nascar will:

-still have identical cars with fake head light stickers
-mechanics named "Bubba"
-idiots saying "boogeddy " for years.
-cartoons for the less inteligent children
-slow
-boring tracks
- that fake feeling you get from WWE wrestleing
-hill billy windchimes
-has been drivers
-slow
-10,000 giant truckdriver hats
-yellow flags








I need some F1 and a tetanus shot.
