An Ode to the CoT (Or Boxy is Foxy)

Its looks are on par with Ugly Betty,
But also harks to the cars driven by Petty,
Fans call it ugly, far from a beauty,
But looks aren’t the C-O-T’s chief duty,
Wider bases, splitters and gasp! A wing,
But it’s safer, slower, and that’s the main thing
It’s not a sleek missile like prior makes
But the C-O-T gives as good as she takes,
Style critics panned it; nothing but yucks,
And last year Kyle Busch said it plain sucks,
Jimmie Johnson won 5 races in the CORN,
Even when Jeff tried to use his Chrome horn,
Fires might start from foam in the doors,
And last year some races were drown out by snores,
Now it’s oh eight and it’s full time gig,
For the Car of Right Now and it will be big,
If cars are like women, she’s far from hot,
But at least this girl can handle a slingshot,
So it looks like a brick, all big and boxy,
If it brings better racing, then I say she’s foxy.
