A post-race comment got me thinking....
*Seems* to me like over the last decade or so...whenever Chevys were strong...not much complaints. But whenever a Toyota or Ford got strong, it was off to the dyno to measure horsepower...

Am I wrong :ques:
 
Interesting. Haven't thought about it like that, but you may have a point. I like how Dale Jarrett put it: Something to the effect that qualifying was a "formal affair", in that "bow ties were required". Of course DJ drove a Ford...
