Could 'Car of Tomorrow' be the championship spoiler?
Rea White / Special to FOXSports.com 2/6/07***
CRU-Excerpt:
Is it possible, therefore, that this year's champion could simply be the
team that figures out the new car first?
"Absolutely," says two-time Cup champion Tony Stewart. "I guarantee that's
what's going to happen. Most definitely that's what will happen this year,
is the team that stumbles on the combination with that car will
most definitely win the championship."
