Foreigners days in NASCAR numbered?
NASCAR says it wants to get back to the Good Ol' Days when the sport was at its peak. However, it has a major dilemma on its hands – it has let the foreigners in and how do they now get them out?
"The perception that the sport is a lot different than it used to be is worse than actual facts," Jeff Burton said. "When I talk to people about the sport, some guys I respect that are race fans and have been for a long time, good old regular guys, what I get is, 'Well, I don't like it.' Why? 'Well, they let Toyota in' or 'I don't like all the foreign drivers being here' or 'I don't like the Car of Tomorrow'"
