List of NASCAR teams
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of NASCAR teams, a list of all teams that race in one of NASCAR's top three divisions (NEXTEL Cup, Busch Series and Craftsman Truck Series). Full-time teams are teams that attempt to qualify for every race in their division (with very few exceptions, such as those due to hauler breakdowns or deaths). Part-time teams are teams that are active but do not attempt to qualify for every race.
In 2007, all Chevy and Dodge teams in the NEXTEL Cup Series will run the Chevrolet Impala and the Dodge Avenger for the Car of Tomorrow races.
