what you guys think letting toyota join the truck series?
soon they'll be in winston cup!
I dont like haveing a forign company be involved in nascar i think its a full american sport and it should stay that.....people dont care about history all they want is to line their pockets.....
but dodge is owned by diamler chyrsler and thats german so it already does have some forign influence!
keep it american manufactuers and thats it!

oh yeah for your info.....i see MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL AS AN AMERICAN SPORT AND I SEE TONS OF PPL THAT ARENT AMERICAN PLAY IT............. so you know what..... who cares if yota joins NASCAR?! It makes for more competition... it gives things CHANGE.... I dont have problems with "All american" stuff and havin other races and cultures join it also...... it should not matter if the car was made in Mars or not.... if it can race, let it race.... or is everyone scared the imports would beat out all the "all american" chit

it is not american owned and the only reason 70% of the toyotas made now are american part the only reason american parts is because its left hand steering wheel!

I think for some people in particular... like diehard redneck people.. the last thing they thought they had to themselves was good ole nascar.. but if the others can join it as well, then it probably has them freaked out, just like when tiger woods started playin pro golf.

I Live in California, so i have already faced the fact that, This is not a we were here first anymore country.:ermm:

Everyone who is out there in the world just about already has some people here, and i dont expect to see em lockin down the borders anymore.. it just hasnt hit some of the people backeast.. states like alabahma, arkansas, Norff Caroliinaa.. lmao just messin with you guys on the states tharr.:blah:


But yeah, i realize half you guys are all backeast, and unless you also live in the melting pot type states, you just haven't realized how many other nations really are here already... and i dont think any of them will STOP coming anytime soon..

There whole cities here where you can drive through and tell it is all oriental, vietnamese, or whatever..

I can understand why they stay away from the east... you guys scare em too much i think.. haha..

Oh.. alot of times i think to myself that im the little white boy minority.. which is pretty true almost.. lol

Nascar has nothing to do with american tradition.. wtf??

its a sport, and chances are it will be driven by a white guy, so you can still be happy..

By now Toyotas have hardly an ounce of import in them.. seems to me that they are built here.. in american factories.. sold to american citizens..

aren't their plants and headquarters all mid-west??

i could care less about import as long as it isnt rice... seems to me your driving a japanese vehicle.. and its an import.. so i think you should'nt race it anymore..

Dont worry about Toyota bein in the Truck Series guys. None of this truck will be truly Toyota. Maybe 5% of the motor, but the rest will be aftermarket from the teams engine people. The body will have a Toyota emblem and say Toyota on it, and have the headlights stickered on, but the chassis will be built by the team owners shop guys, whoever that may be. Everything on it will be american, from the metal body to the valve covers.

I don't give a rat's *** about that non-athletic sport centered around rednecks. If Toyota wants to race, let em' its a free country.
