I had the same complaint at the Chilibowl. I can't tell who is who. No originality anymore.

I have always been interested in a budget sprint car series, but here is what I have found. When they try to start it up, it is always a traveling series with tracks too far from me and there goes...

Right direction, but yes, still pricey. I built a turbo 4 cylinder that pushes 400hp for about $4,500.

Advertising!!! I talk to so many people in their 20's and they don't even know what a sprint car is.

That and with a faster race, that means less time to drink less beer.

I have always wonders about this. Where is this legal? There are misconception about turbos. The statment is correct about turbo lag, in todays turbos (ball bearing turbos) the lag if very low,...

Great video. I know this is a little off topic, but there is one thing that I have noticed that kinda annoys me with midget racing and sometimes the sprints. Why does everyone have to have a black...

Well I am assuming that the loads applied to those parts are low. Plus if a rod or valve breaks, you are just out a motor. Not safety critical parts. The majority of the use for titanium in the...

First off, yes this chassis is a work of art and I congratulate the welder. However, I think this chassis is completely going in the wrong direction and there is no way I would drive that chassis. ...

More people have died playing football and running marathons this year. Time to shut them down as well.

Like any racetrack in any series pulling the yellow out is the decision of the flag crew. They made the right choice to delay the yellow in this case.

Yes, but a couple of things to note. This happens only every 4 years. Not every week and 80% of the year like Speed and Nascar. Also this is a world event, not just a southern American event.
