Can the film industry “Transform” NASCAR car design?

If you think the previous Car of Tomorrow updates to the legacy NASCAR car design that currently grace the track was a big transformation… this next one will blow your mind.

Well, at least for a few weeks during a summer blocker set to release July 1, 2011 (USA), directed by Michael Bay.  In the upcoming Transformers 3, the Autobots and Decepticaons take on NASCAR.  The guys over at Screen Rant have unearthed some cool imagery from the set, and here’s a cool video clip of the new card designs from the movie set itself!

Sunrox has designed the paint scheme for the No. 42 TARGET car competing in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.  Sunrox has provided these design ever since TARGET became the primary sponsor of the car (and actually before it was the primary sponsor).  It will be great to see the No. 42 Target up on the big screen in a sure to be summer smash!  It’s sure to be featured from the looks of the insider clips from the movie set in Chicago.  Speculation suggests these new bots (to the movie franchise) are the Transformer G1 (Generation One) Micromasters – Race Car Patrol (image courtesy of tfwiki.net)
