So will NASCAR tell them they can not run in Cup anymore? Nope, we get EV racing. From the same article: "What happens to the legendary nameplate after that timeframe remains uncertain. One possibility is that the Chevy Camaro will be revived as a new performance EV sedan, coinciding with General Motors’ move towards an all-electric future."

I would be in favor of a separate EV division for NASCAR. However, Trucks, Xfinity, and Cup have to remain gas-powered for as long as possible. Even if you have to open up to V6s or hybrid power. I know NASCAR wants to have new engine package for Cup soon. However, costs (because engines are expensive) are a limiting factor.

I watched about 20 minutes of Formula E and the motor noise gave me a headache. Turn the volume down and you don't get any info on the race from the broadcasters. I can't imagine watching them live.

They ran a non-hybrid Prius in the SuperGt300 categegory years ago... Camaro is dead again so we'll get another Impala, or Cavalier, some bullshit body style the can slap onto a nascar chassis. Who cares?

I actually remember watching some of the races with the BGN V6s, they sounded like crap.

I seem to remember things a bit differently. The V6 was not the future. But they wanted to make the Busch series significantly different from the Cup series. They didn't sound great, kinda buzzy.
