LOL.
Getting serious for a moment, tho, I'd say there's zero chance
of Honda ever getting into NASCAR racing. It's simply not the
way they market their cars (if you doubt that, consider the
number of Hondas in the other big stock-bodied series, the WRC).
The next manufacturer to join the NASCAR party will be Nissan,
probably under their Infiniti nameplate, with the G35 (otherwise
known as the Skyline, which has had considerable racing success
in it's GTR variant).
