The Different Types Of Vehicles Involved In Dirt Track Racing

By Ronald Martin


Track racing, an auto racing type that is being performed in the oval tracks where in the surfaces are often made of clay or dirt. The open wheel racers and the stock cars are 2 commonly used types which are used. Open wheels were built particularly for the purpose of racing while stock cars are either switched from racing purposes or to street vehicle purposes but this will depend on the usage degrees.

Each race track or each of the sponsoring organization has own rules and regulations written in rule books that outline the many variations of race cars. These rules may include the prohibitions, equipment requirements, engine size, and dimensions. The requirements are usually correlated in multiple tracks in order to allow widest venues for each car for the dirt track racing Arkansas. This coordination can also allow the drivers for competing in many racetracks, letting the associations develop many series of events in order to promote fan interests, and increasing a competitors chance to win.

The two kinds of vehicles range from small to large engines. Some vehicles, depending on its type, are placed with wings for aiding its handling, especially in higher speeds. Generally, open wheels are manufactured having tubular frames, bodies are purchased specifically for this class. Wheels are open and are not secured with fenders.

A hybrid type of open wheel is called the modified car. Its characteristics are most likely the same as the stock car. Rear wheels have covering while the front wheels do not have. This is being controlled with specific rules by sanctioning bodies in most of the tracks. Each body provides their own set of regulations and rules and also registration fees.

Another term for a stock car is full bodied car where in the wheels have a covering and protected by fenders. One general type of this are non production cars. The non production kinds have welded tubular frames and bodies are purchased or customized. One subtype are late models and are classified into tracks and series of run.

A late model is currently the dirt super feature made from tube frames chassis of steel and aluminum bodies. These features give it a more similar appearance to stock cars. These are considered as very sophisticated when it comes to dirt racing. These are raced in different tracks having one fourth up to one mile.

Limited late model has rules which are similar to a late model. Their only difference is their motor rules. Typically, the engine limitations will include the carburetor size, compression ratios, cylinder head angle, and displacement size of engine. The purpose of rules on suspension is to forbid the utilization of those canister shocks with expensive costs. Tires also have limitations.

The late model stock is the same as super and limited late models when it comes to the body rule. This has more engine rules that are limited. The crate late models are making use of engines with special tags. Some parts which are sealed with the tags are oil pan, front cover, cylinder head, and intake manifold. Specifications of engines are not allowed to be altered and modified.

There are types of car that have been modified manufactured. The highest division of modified cars production may only have a very few original parts. Mostly, the glass windshields are removed and the interiors are stripped out. These are also used with full exhaust systems.
