Car racing is no longer PC.
Expect it to be banned.

All I know is that racing in a Chevy Nova is a "no go".

Is V8 the engine size or the fuel that it needs?

As a 15 year fan of F1, I am excited to hear that turbos, AWD, and a driver-activated ‘boost’ will be allowed. As for the “green” origins of this change...I don’t care. Anyone who has done even the slightest amount of INDIVIDUAL* research probably already knows that climate change is due to solar action and not human-caused CO2 output.
Although not always successful, the FIA has always tried to make the sport more exciting to watch. The Schumacher era is over. It’s the perfect oppertunity to let racres race.
*As opposed to letting AlGore or the EU tell you how to think.

I’m of the opinion that if NASCAR truly wants to be green and develop the automotive technology space, they should mandate the use of either Propane or CNG as the fuel.
This would allow them to be green and still maintain the performance of the cars and the excitement of the race.
