WHAT IS CAR RACING?

WHAT IS CAR RACING?

Auto racing (also known as automobile racing or autosport) is a sport involving racing automobiles. Motor racing or motorsport may also mean motorcycle racing, and can include motorboat racing and air racing. It is one of the world's most popular spectator sports and perhaps the most thoroughly commercialized.

RALLY RACING

RALLY RACING

Rallying (international) or rally racing (US) is a form of automobile racing that takes place on public roads with modified production or specially built road cars. Modern rallying originated in Europe in the early 20th century. The unique motorsport events distinguished themselves by running not in a Formula 1-style circuit, but instead in a point-to-point format where participants and their co-drivers would rally to a set of points, leaving in regular intervals from start points.

DRIFT RACING

DRIFT RACING

Drifting refers to the difference in slip angle between the front and rear tires of a car. When the rear wheels are slipping at a greater angle than the front wheels, the car is drifting, or oversteering. The rear end of the car appears to chase the front end around a turn, while the front tires control the actual direction of the car.

TOURING RACING

TOURING RACING

Touring car racing is a general term for a number of distinct automobile racing competitions in heavily-modified street cars. It is notably popular in Britain, Germany, Scandinavia, and Australia.

FORMULA RACING

FORMULA RACING

Formula racing is a form of motorsport where the type of automobiles used is regulated by a formula. Although this in truth applies to virtually every form of motor racing conceived of since the start of the sport a century ago, in practical terms 'formula car' means an open-wheeled purpose-built racing car.

SPRINT RACING

SPRINT RACING

Sprint cars are small, high-powered race cars designed primarily for the purpose of running on short dirt or paved tracks. Sprint cars have a high power-to-weight ratio making sprint car racing exciting with speeds in excess of 140 MPH on some tracks. This speed often also makes it very dangerous.

STOCK RACING

STOCK RACING

Stock car racing is a form of automobile racing found mainly in the United States held largely on banked concrete oval tracks of between approximately 1/2 mile and 2.66 miles (about 0.8 to 4.2 kilometres) in length, but also raced occasionally on conventional racing circuits. Ovals shorter than one mile (1.6 km) are called short tracks; unpaved short tracks are called dirt tracks; longer ovals are typically known as superspeedways. Races are generally 200 to 600 miles (320-965 km) in length.

MIDGET RACING

MIDGET RACING

Midget cars are very small race cars with a very high power-to-weight ratio. Despite the name, they are fully capable of being driven by average-sized drivers. They are intended to be driven for races of relatively short distances, typically 2.5 to 25 miles (4 to 40 km), often staged inside arenas. These sorts of events are sometimes held on weeknights so that popular and famous drivers from other, higher-profiled types of motor racing will be available to compete.

SPORTS CAR RACING

SPORTS CAR RACING

Sports car racing is a form of circuit racing, with purpose-built cars that nevertheless have enclosed wheel wells and often have closed cockpits.

PRODUCTION CAR RACING

PRODUCTION CAR RACING

Production car racing includes all categories of auto racing where unmodified (or very lightly modified) cars race each other.

DRAG CAR RACING

DRAG CAR RACING

A drag race is a contest between two vehicles racing side by side in a straight line at a designated, controlled racetrack, usually on a quarter-mile. In most drag racing categories, the first vehicle to the finish line wins. In some cases, such as Jr. drag racing, the course is an eighth-mile instead of a quarter-mile.
