Its about time. What the heck was the Fusion about? Fusion and "race car" don't belong in the same sentence.

Maybe they're trying to drum up some interest in Nationwide???

It's not like the race cars are going to be anything but vague 'silhouette' versions of what's sold to the public.

Oddly, from what I hear, the Fusion available over in the UK is actually a pretty kick-*** ride. Too bad they didn't go with the Camaro. The Impala? c'mon.

Guess its kinda silly. I think the body on every car, no matter the brand, is exactly the same and only stickers attempt to give some resemblance to the car its supposed to be.

I liked it back in the day when the car was actually a modified thunderbird, monte carlo, etc.

My first car was a 1988 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe and my second was a 1995 Thunderbird SC. It's kind of sad that the "win on sunday sell on monday" thing is long over with.

I understand why Toyota will still run the Camry, but what's up with Chevy not running the Camaro?? WTF?? The Impala? One more sign that GM still doesn't get it...

Oh and btw people do care about the Nationwide series. If nobody was paying attention then they wouldn't have it. Plain and simple.
