Yeah, NASCAR engineering is underappreciated too, but I didn't know they could do a lap with an open throttle around Talladega. That's crazy.
Fun fact: the Porsche 917 still holds the lap record at Talladega, even though it was set in 1975, because no one else is crazy enough to run a 1200HP 1700lb car around it. And it got so hot (running an open throttle?) that it spontaneously caught on fire when it stopped in the pits without any airflow.
