Nascar IROC series

On the speed channel they are having a race of TransAm's...its so cool...I usually dotn watch nascar but the IROC series is fun to watch, especially with an F-Body.

the new ones are ta's in the 80's they used camaros, then they used dodge daytonas for a while. IROC isn't part of nascar either (hence they get drivers from other series) it's just run with them because of nascar having more spectators than any other form of racing

most of the time they can't (the irl cars have alot of computers to help the driver as well as a lot less weight)

nascar racing is gay.

But IROCs are sweet.

The two together are not.

iroc has never been a real production car, always a skinned race car, just they looked a little more stock (they did change it in nascar because of safety concerns)
