Maryeve Dufault, former model is headed to NASCAR.

This should be good, now that Danica said she's going full-time into NASCAR now.

meh...

in more important news, Abe Vigoda is still alive...

They should go back to stock cars, not "stock" cars. Go rent 40 tauruses and impalas and whatever from hertz, throw the keys in a bowl, and run what ya brung.

I always liked this era.

^ me to

Dirt eighths with rented Tauruses and Impalas, now that's a sport.

I'd watch it. all the time. The cars are certainly safe enough, safer than some of the stuff I see in like, bomber class....

That whole "stock" car vs. stock car argument has been going on since about 1970, I think it's time to give it up.

yeah, I agree, I think NASCAR should change it's name too

dogbreath....berkeley yes haha

I don't know.... don't s'pose it will really matter when they're racing.

In reply to mndsm:

The path the cars describe on an oval is nearly a torus...

What if the Tauruses were owned by a Man named Clint?

Then you put it on PPV and charge 50$ a race.

She can grind my gears any day: http://www.maxim.com/amg/girls/todays+girl/072011/maryeve+dufault

Nobody has asked the big question.

If she was a professional model, what are her qualifications to race in NASCAR at the professional level?

Other than the common trait that models and NASCAR drivers have of only going straight and turning left of course...

Apparently she has raced since she was 8 and has a history in ARCa

I like how you modified my quote lol. Also, is she just a little red x in a white box?

i'm partial the the early 80's to the late 90's, myself. the last era where actual stock sheetmetal was used, there were more than 4 car makes out there that you could tell apart, and they weren't afraid to dice it up a little bit for every position on the track.

i like the racing today, and think the cars are awesome pieces of machinery that are fielded by amazingly talented teams and drivers- but i have no illusions about any of it in any way resembling anything i could potentially go buy from a dealer lot.

regarding the "stockness" of the cars.. they are no less "stock" than 90% of the cars that you'll see racing at any local dirt track around the country. really- go check it out some time. everything above the bomber classes are pieces of sheet aluminum, sheet steel, and plastic riveted over a tube chassis that is built around 18" chunks of the frame rails of a GM "metric" chassis.

How does being a professional model disqualify her from racing in NASCAR?

She's French Canadian. That means a bunch of ol' southern boys are about to learn what a crazy lady is like.

I watched the interview with her on Autoblog. Can't decide whether I dislike her because she's French Canadian and has a silly accent or like her because she's a goregeous girl who races cars.
