Default Aero Warriors

50 years ago manufacturers Aero Wars began with the Charger 500, Dodge Daytona, Plymouth Superbird, Mercury Cyclone Spoiler. Ford even named the Torino Talladega after the famed Talladega Superspeedway.


It's amazing the lengths the manufacturers went to enhance/ modify these cars to create an advantage. The rub is... in the end the sanctioning body changed the ruled which ended the run for these purpose built cars.
