Just think how much better street cars would be if NASCAR made them use real street cars with only safety, suspension, tire and limited engine mod's...
That is basically the AMLS race series. NASCAR is meant to be about drivers and is similar to IROC. The manufacturers are just applying the name to make it similar to the old days when NASCAR were factory cars with rollcages and to have free advertising for those cars during the race.
