I would have never guessed more engineering goes into a NASCAR motor over a F-1 engine. I really have a hard time believing that especially when you consider the RPM's each engine runs at and the fact that a F1 engine must last 2 races and qualifying. Does NASCAR have engine rules like that as well? I really do not know.

Frustrating to the teams I am sure.
Similar in that regard to F1 except 1 race. PRM is related, again, to the engine rules. It was said recently by, I forget the name but a top F1 engine designer, A NASCAR engine guy could "build" the F1 engine but the F1 engine guy would struggle with the NASCAR engine - with the objective of getting the competitive engine performance from each. I can point you to the guy who said it f interested.
