    I'm just afraid there gonna find something illegal about his car, hope not.
    They just seam too be running awful strong this year.
    I still don't like that they let Toyota race with the big 3.
    I think they just opened the door for the rest of the forien car
    market to get in. But I guess times are changing and that is racing.

    Toyota spent the money to develop a pushrod V8 just to compete in NASCAR.. At least they have showed some dedication to the sport.(we need someone to root against) They won't find anything wrong with Matt's car, he just hasn't had a brilliant crew chief since Robbie Reiser got promoted. Drew Blickensderfer's record last year with Carl Edwards speaks for itself. Strategy put them in the right place at the right time at Daytona and they had the hot set-up to win at the skidpath in California,now it's off to vegas. Maybe we can see some real racing there.

    I'm absolutely convinced the Ford cheated in some way.

    Yeah they were running a Ford in a Ford and not a Chevy in a Ford.

    Big Three? It's soon going to be the Big Two: Ford and Toyota! I guess you folks have to work during the day but I watch Fox Business News during the day and Chrysler is very likely to disappear and GM will too unless the UAW takes stock in retirement. Gee I really like those old SBCs and early Caddy V8s, but you better get your hemi now before it is too late! I too regret to see Joe Gibbs running Toyotas but you have to admit multimillion dollar teams will be hard to support if GM is bankrupt and Joe probably made a good survival move. As Bob said above at least Toyota did their homework to develop a pushrod V8. I used to be a real Fordnatic but too many years of that long SBF water pump (before aftermarket pumps were available) switched me to SBC fandom. There ought to be a few million 350s out there somewhere to keep us going until NASCAR allows electric cars????, Naaa, they are too quiet! Pretty amazing how a car can stop exactly on an air hose, eh? P.S. it was daffy427 who mentioned the Toyota pushrod engine development.

    Yea,and why does anything that they give Kyle Bush seem to be so much faster than anything else in the field. They really screwed something up in the last race and he wasn't happy at all.

    Since everyone hates Kyle anyways it's perfect that he drives a Toyota....He has good equipment for sure but he also has some serious talent.

    Don't matter if you like Kyle or not, but he sure is one heck of a driver!!!! Only 2 wins last weekend in the top 3 NASCAR divisions!!!! Guess I still can't figure out all the Toyota hate, they pump a ton of money into motorsports in general and certainly do put out a quality product that makes the other competitors have to take a giant step forward in improvements to their program, too.... No conspiracy or fraud in the race, just a top notch race team with top notch equipment......

    You got that right Dave!! Toyota has dumped millions into racing, not only on a circle track either. Im not a big nascar fan , but it would kinda suck to hear about a porch or ferrari competing, but maybe a v8 honda would be alright
