Why the name LAMOT (Late Model of Tomorrow)?
In looking at Nascar’s Cup division and their use of the COT (Car of Tomorrow) body template that was designed for use in 2008 primarily with an even playing field in mind is the same idea that was applied to LAMOT. Where Nascar designed a body template, LAMOT put together a rules package that allows more teams to compete on a more even playing field at less cost by the use of longer lasting tires, spec. shocks and long lasting and less expensive crate engines that run high test pump gasoline from any gas station, instead of race fuel which in some cases costs over $10 per gallon.
