Yeah that chevy is a malibu,but im pretty sure its going to be a camaro when race time comes.These cars also have front springs instead of bump stops and are 200 to 300 HP less than cup cars cause of a new bigger plate on the carburetor.

My pick for that would be ss.net. Given the awesome job they did on their COT mod, I can't see anyone else besides them releasing it. The GNS07 mod that is available at TRG is essentially the ss.net NNC07 mod converted to GNS physics.

but dont forget. by 2010 Toyota may have a car just for that series instead of the camry. man that challenger is sick! i hope chevy goes with the 09 Camaro instead of the crappy Mailbu or redesigned Impala. and that ford looks nothing like any of the concept stangs show recently, it might be a new fusion or Taurus model.

Well the good news is, whatever model each brand sports, the car should look significantly closer to the actual car available for purchase at a dealership. Ever since the '98 Taurus came out, the cars have looked less and less and less like the real thing, and now I look at the Charger on the track and just laugh at it in terms of realism.
Looks like this Nationwide COT will be the start of a new rededication to synergy between stock car racing and products sold on the road. This is something both NASCAR and the automotive industry need BADLY!

Nothing has been determined and you have to remember that since this car won't see the track in competition till 2010 no one will start the mod till we get closer. Too many things can change between today and the final version of the COT. I think Dodge brought the real nose they're working on so they could get the down force package tested. That big gap in the nose will cause problems for teams if they don't get more info on how it'll handle. The other makes are probably just testing to see how the car handles rather than worrying about the nose. The nose for them will probably stay near the same but with different decal lines.
