Now I am questioning a number of things you are saying. Anyone with eyes can see there was catch for a new brand, data, chassis design, aero design, engine design. Holden and Ford also had an advantage in engine and componentry design, Nissan didn't. You saying it was all new and the old era didn't matter is so far off reality. Any data matters
KELLY RACING had the data, the Nissan Altima is their baby. Nissan gives them the $$$

You are making out like the Nissan and Volvo efforts were factory operations! They were not, Nissan and Volvo were in effect just sponsoring the efforts of Kelly Racing and GRM, who have been racing in the series for ages.

They were not "new teams" as you have tried suggesting
