Yeah, those NASCAR vehicles are specifically designed to be less than ideal for drag. Some of it is for downforce, some is just to handicap the race. Average Joe doesn't see that, though. He sees 180 mph and thinks that car must be the best way to do it, not realizing it's a crude brute-force approach.
