Listen listen, playas. Daytona Blue is all about cars galore. We dig the history of auto racing and customization. We dig the new stuff too. But these Donks, well, they seem to have reached a completely new plateau of awesomeness. Ridin’ Dirty indeed. Enjoy more Donktastic insanity while we put together some real stories about real rides.

The Japanese Invasion of NASCAR: Cause for Concern?

One begins to think perhaps not. NASCAR announced today that it is only guaranteeing two spots for Toyota in the season-opener at Daytona. The remaining Toyota entries will have to qualify just like everyone else. And this has some worried.  At Preseason Thunder in Daytona this week, NASCAR.com reports that the Toyotas were posting remarkably lackluster times, proof that the Toyota teams are still far from perfecting the setups on these spanking new machines. Though Daytona is still a month away, one gets the sense that the Toyota teams are concerned about becoming competitive in time. Lee White, senior vice president and general manager of Toyota Racing Development told NASCAR.com that “I’d be lying if I told you it wasn’t daunting. I’d be lying if I told you I was confident that those eight cars will even run the race, because only two of them are guaranteed in.” We at Daytona Blue are eager to see TRD fall flat on their face. The primacy of American engineering shall reign supreme!

And a word about the car. It looks like a 1998-vintage Monte Carlo save for the C-pillar!

What do you think about Toyota in NASCAR? Fire away with your comments.

Quoting nascar.com:

Benny Parsons who charmed television audiences with his folksy demeanor as much as he impressed fans with his ability as a driver, died Tuesday at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte following complications from lung cancer. He was 65.

Parsons was inducted into the International Motorsports Hall of Fame in 1994 and named one of NASCAR’s 50 greatest drivers in 1998.

Rest in peace, BP!!!

 This is about as cool as those arab dudes street skating off a car, or that Monster Jam driver who used to get out of his truck and stand on the roof as it rolled to a stop. Man, this video shows that true Dirty Dirty South car culture where they just don’t care. Man I bet my car tall, and I bet my mota’ clean!!! Donk it, baby!
