nascar is turning japanese

I've been hearing quite a bit about the controversy surrounding Toyota and its entrance for the first time into the sacred tracks of NASCAR. Basically, a lot of NASCAR folks, fans and professionals alike, are upset that a Japanese company has invaded this wholly ultra-American pasttime, and the sentiment has quickly crossed over into unabashed, naked xenophobia: The Jingoism 500. It's the same kind of racist rhetoric that killed Vincent Chin in 1982.
