All I want to know, did they slow the cars down again? I surely don't want to endanger any of those good 'ol southern boys good looks. BTW, 20 years ago they posted faster times on the super speedways. Cool!

They're actually running just a tick faster down the straights (shaved the spoiler some), but a bit slower in the turns (the sidewalls on the tires flex a bit more, and the same shaved spoiler). I wonder just how fast they'd go if they still had the mid-80's body rules (no plates/roof rails/a few other things), but the basic shape of today's cars.
