NASCAR approves 2013 car redesigns

The 2013 Sprint Cup series cars from the four participating manufacturers can now start being produced after NASCAR issued their final approval. The new models, which will better resemble the street versions of Chevrolet's SS, Ford's Fusion, Toyota's Camry and Dodge's Charger, will make their competitive debut next year at Daytona in February following two years of development. The final approval was based upon results from aerodynamic testing earlier this month, as NASCAR tried to equalize downforce and drag levels for all four different models.
