To call a Sprint Car a Non-Winged Sprint Car is the same duplicative and redundant word as irregardless. Check your dictionary, irregardless is not a word. Even when you type it in here on IOW, you get red squiggles under it!

If you feel further differentiation is necessary, you might consider Traditional Sprint Car versus Winged Sprint Car.

I like Winged Sprint Cars just as much as Sprint Cars. I just believe they should be properly referred to.
