NASCAR’s “Car of Tomorrow” project is unabashedly forward-thinking but it also gives a nod to the past, a dichotomy on display for fans this weekend at Darlington Raceway, site of Saturday night’s Dodge Avenger 500.
A special exhibit entitled “NASCAR: Back to the Future” will be open Friday from 2–7 p. m. and Saturday from 1-7 p. m., behind the raceway’s Tyler Tower. The exhibit will illustrate the evolution of NASCAR-style stock cars, culminating with the current Car of Tomorrow models that honor traditional NASCAR principles of safety, competition and cost management while offering a closer-to-stock appearance that is a “throwback” to the past.
