Todd Berrier on the COT.

Q: How’s the Car of Tomorrow going to play at Darlington this weekend?

Berrier: How’s the COT going to play at Darlington? I really think, at the end of a fuel run, you’ll be able to go out there and run faster in a rental car. I’m being perfectly honest with you.

I think it’s going to be miserably slow. But, I don’t honestly know. I think the race at Phoenix, where we were at another mile place; I think it was rather boring from my perspective.

Then I watched the Busch race at Richmond [last] Friday night and I thought it was rather good. I’m hoping the same thing plays out for [the Car of Tomorrow] — the thing is just so top-heavy and the center of gravity is so high.

There’s nothing about it that you would build, intentionally that way to go to Darlington and run fast — or anyplace else, for that matter. Darlington is just going to be way worse because the tires fall off so much.

I feel like it’s going to be miserable — miserably ugly. But I might be 100 percent wrong.

Seems some are worried that Hendrick Motor Sports is 'winning too much'... Wonder how HELTON thinks? Would Nascar complain about the NYYankees winning several World Series in a row???

Please add me to the ping list.

I will play nice, and root for a lot of guys. I wonder if you could give us lurkers a little insight into the names and designations for the various drivers. I get mixed up following the thread.

BTW, I just turned on the DVR and noted a new speed record was set by Kyle. I came in just as the #5 car was qualifying...Mark, the Giddyup Man, trying to register websites...!
