Will Toyota be accepted?

I can;t sell mt tickets fast enough. It sucks

Toyota does not belong in Nascar period! Doesn't anyone remember just a few short years ago when Toyota entered the truck series? They said they would not enter the cup series. I guess that means they are a bunch of liars! The cars may be made in the U.S. as Dale Jarrett says but remember, the profits go to Japan. The Cup was set up as an American series not an International series. Brain France does not care what the faithful long term fans want just what he can make the most money from. I am sure Bill France Sr. is rolling over in his grave with what Brian is doing to this series. I was a fan back when it wasn't popular to be a fan. Back when you must be ignorant or a moonshiner to be a nascar fan. I have to say that to those of us that have been the faithful origional fans of Nascar, it's time to walk away and find a series that remembers where it came from. A series that is more interested in racing and not how much money they can make. A series that is loyal to its roots and not a sell out to the next fad that can bring in a few more bucks. Shame on you Brian France and the rest of the Nascar managment for selling out to the Japanese. By the way Dale if you go to Japan, tell me how many of the cars over there look like the big three clonse that Toyota builds here in the U.S.. They didn't even make a pickup like our until they produced a mimic of the American pickups. The only thing that is American about Toyota is the U.S> dollar that is going to Japan every time an American wants to be trendy and buys there want to be American want to be. Go home Toyota and leave our racing series alone. I know I am looking for a new series to watch and I hope it comes along soon. By the way Brain, Remeber Indy Car and CART? Are you ready for that to happen to Nascar? Keep it up and it will.

Bill’s spelling and punctuation difficulties are obvious, however it’s been at minimum 18 months since Toyota’s entry to Cup was announced why weren’t your tickets sold shortly thereafter?

I’ll state the obvious first, Ford’s profits on their most popular line, the Fusion, are returned to the U.S.. Why no complaints on that? Secondly using his twisted view of the world would it be safe to assume he is in favor of all Microsoft’s (and hundreds of other U.S. companies) European Union profits remain in the EU vice returned to America? I doubt… no I’m sure Tom hasn’t thought that deeply on the subject.

Tom continues:“The Cup was set up as an American series not an International series. Brain France does not care what the faithful long term fans want just what he can make the most money from. I am sure Bill France Sr. is rolling over in his grave with what Brian is doing to this series. I was a fan back when it wasn’t popular to be a fan. Back when you must be ignorant or a moonshiner to be a nascar fan.”

Why would Bill France Sr. be doing any “whirlpool dancing?” Big Bill was fully in charge during the 1954 season when a Jaguar won a NASCAR sanctioned event at Linden, New Jersey. That event also marked its inagural race on a road-racing layout. There were several other Jags in that race in addition to a couple of MG’s.

Tom, some have moved way beyond the “ignorant or a moonshiner” stage, some painfully haven’t. Tom continues on with the normal boilerplate “NASCAR is all money with no fan concerns addressed” blather, then this:“By the way Dale [Jarrett] if you go to Japan, tell me how many of the cars over there look like the big three clonse [sic] that Toyota builds here in the U.S.”

Tom, a world traveler he’s not. My seven years living in Japan taught me one of many things. While the Japanese adore anything and everything American their preference on American made autos is tempered by geography and population density.

The average residential road in Japan is about the size of a fire trail through an American national forest. No American “Land Yachts” allowed, or desired. Even the Ford Fusion is borderline and would only be purchased by those living away from many of the large Japanese population centers.

While it’s true Japan’s first foray into the U.S. market in the late 50’s and early 60’s featured American styling cues, now and for the last 2 decades the reverse is true. The American manufacturers have taken many styling ideas and interior creature comforts directly from the Japanese design studios and showrooms (Japanese designers were hired by U.S. automakers to smooth that process). The latest Japanese idea copied are TV screens in headrests. They first appeared in Japan’s cars a decade ago along with rolling internet access.

In short Tom, and most of his ilk are clueless and argue from a position of ignorance of todays automotive marketplace and sadly of NASCARs history.

Nice dream. While I have no problems with Toyota being in the sport there's no way they will win more than 2 races, if that, during the season.

I think Toyota will be something to whatch for. They already dominate truck racing and noboby fusses, so whats the big deal in Nextel? I think we need a change for the better. I am a Ford man but Toyota Deserves a chance

Sorry I miss spelled probably!!
