Generation 4 (NASCAR)

Common card · No. 288970

The Generation 4 car was the NASCAR vehicle generation that was used in the NASCAR Cup Series full-time from 1992 to 2006 and part-time in 2007, in the Busch/Nationwide Series until 2010, and in the ARCA Racing Series until 2017. The generation has been described as the generation that removed all "stock" aspects from stock car racing and was as aerodynamically sensitive as a Le Mans Prototype. Generation 4 cars feature highly modified bodies with teams spending hours in the wind tunnel to gain aerodynamics. The bumpers, nose and tail are composed of molded fiberglass based on production counterparts. In the 2000s teams began using different RPM levels on their engines making each team and manufacturer sound different.
