Wasn't surprised by the outcome of this video. Although I am not a fan of NASCAR, i do love the fact that they decide not to put any technology into the vehicle. Its just RAW power and how much of a madman the person behind the wheel is. #merica

I would actually love to see an entire NASCAR event at the Nürburgring (or any F1 track). That would be some entertainment.

Truly nuts with manual steering and brakes!!! Not a true NASCAR stock car but close enough.

NASCAR does a couple of road courses a year. It's funny seeing a single wiper blade on the windshield. I still don't think they use rain tires and run in the rain though....

The day F1 started using technology in the cars the whole cheer enthusiasm died.

New member here - they do run in the rain, but if it's real heavy they will wait out the storm.

The pit strategy plays out when the crews install rain tires or regular racing tires for nascar races at the road courses.
