There has been a lot of talk in the garage area since last fall about the Car of Tomorrow, COT. Many drivers have been very vocal against it while some have said they want to see more testing data. Kurt Busch may have made the biggest statement about it to date.
Today, NASCAR.com is reporting, Kurt Busch became the only drive of preseason testing to top 190 mph. He did so in a COT. He, too, had his doubts, but appearantly put those to rest today.
There is no doubt there will be a learning curve for the drivers and teams. It will shake some things up, possibly give someone a chance at a win who might not otherwise have a chance, but if it makes for safer, closer racing, then I say, bring it on!
Cinch up those belts and let’s go racing.
