awsome EOCing even in race cars.. now if they would get boat tails and wheel skirts they would do alot better... lol.. wouldn't that be a site to see..

Really id love to see prius racing, where the best speed/MPG wins where the race could be won by a guy that doesn't cross the finish first .. Imagine the drafting, EOCing and DWLing going on Probably be pretty harry out there with all hypermilers trying for best mpg and speed.. thats kind of the way my commute is trying to stay with traffic yet get the best MPG.

Or even a hybrid nascar cars could run the entire race on less fuel... could make for a really interesting outcomes..the guy who saved a bit of fuel on every lap could win when the rest had to pit for fuel..

Electric nascar could be really interesting .. pit stops would consist of battery pack switches or hydrogen refuels for fuel cells.. aerodynamics could really be toyed with , limit the cars to the exact same motor.. to be fair.. like nascars restricts the throttle plates on the nascar cars.. Nascar restricts aerodynamics also currently.

Really that may move the industry along faster.. lots of things come from the racing scene into production vehicle's.
