Other than the cars themselves, the three series have other comparable factors, such as their backstories. Each Motorsports division started in different regions. They were each started by different individuals or groups of people. According to NASCAR’s website, the sport became more popular after the end of the second World War. In 1947, Bill France formed the first branch of NASCAR or the modern “Monster Energy Series”. Later, in the year 1982, members of NASCAR made a new series, which was given the name the “Late Model Sportsman Division,” which later became the “XFINITY Series.” There is also a third series, the “Craftsman Truck Series,” or the “Camping World Truck Series” that was formed, which uses trucks instead of cars.

The regional racing series should consist of people who are interested in getting into the racing industry as a driver. The series should be called The Road to NASCAR. The races should be held in the capital of each state, and should coincide with big time races such as Bristol. The idea behind the capital of each state is the fact this this will generally be the largest population for each state and therefore the largest possible number of people to be marketed to. Many companies would be interested in sponsorship opportunities such as car repair centers, car dealerships, and fundraising efforts for causes such as cancer. The regional series should give the winner and runners up a chance to learn from one of the top drivers. If there is a

If you are a southern belle or gent, you have some point in your life watched NASCAR and cheered along with your family for your favorite driver. NASCAR is a part of life down in the Deep South, where the people support and still celebrate their heritage. Most people know that NASCAR was founded in the southern region, but most don’t know that it all started with prohibition in the 1920s.

In regards to NASCAR reaching levels of popularity in the United States, the sponsors and audience devoted to this sport outnumbers Indycar (Ferrell & Hartline, 2014). NASCAR has worked on expanding the brand and reaching different regions throughout the United States. The fact that NASCAR was able to work out a substantial contract with Fox and ESPN, Indycar has not been able to reach the same level of success.

To those unaware, racing demands much more than driving fast to win. As far as responsibilities go there are quite a few, to say the least. 2. They include getting around the track as fast as possible, knowing how and when to properly accelerate/decelerate,

“Covering a one-year period… one of every 500 Thoroughbred horse starts at North American racetracks results in a fatal injury… and about 800 deaths…” (The Horse Fund) Horse racing is a popular sporting event throughout the United States as well as the entire world. Since “the first millennium BC. the first formal race took place in Greece.” (Funk and Wagnalls 6). Horse racing is a “contest of speed between two or more horses, usually Thoroughbreds, which are ridden over a special course… horse racing is one of the most highly organized and commercialized sports.” (Funk and Wagnalls 1) There are many types of horse racing, but flat racing is the most popular type of race that everyone watches. The most known racing event in the United States is the Kentucky Derby, which is broadcasted and watched by thousands of people on the first Saturday of May. The Kentucky Derby is known for the betting that happens to see what horse is going to win that years race. There is also the focus on the outrageous hats that women wear on the day of the event.

Pixar created a virtual world of toys by creating Toy Story and later created a virtual world of cars through the box office hit Cars. Lightening McQueen is a showstopper for sure but he is not just one of the main characters or should I say cars that make this an enjoyable movie people both alike and different would watch countless times. The story line is Lightening McQueen’s journey along the way of winning a Piston Cup. Although all of these movie posters of Pixar’s animated movie Cars come from the same movie, these examples show that publishing companies use various scenes, characters and taglines to appeal to different

People wondered about this racing many years ago. The cars were very different from today’s formula ones. The question of safety and also the atmosphere of racing was different. It was a risk to drive so fast and a lot of tragic accidents happened. Also the rules have been changed since the first race was held. The rules are very strict today for safety. According

“Driving in circles” is often one of the first things that comes to mind when someone hears the word racecar driver. However, “driving in circles” is nowhere near a complete explanation of what a racecar driver can do. Most people know racecar drivers drive with the purpose of going fast. Their goal when driving a racecar is to get from point A to point B as fast as possible. They drive endless loops of a racing circuit to improve previous lap times by milliseconds, just to say they were the fastest. This is something that few understand, and racecar drivers have difficulty explaining why this is their passion to others. It’s almost as if they are looking into a different boxcar than others. Sometimes when people think of a racecar driver, they think, “Can’t anyone drive a car?” or “Oh driving in circles like NASCAR? That must be easy.” These answers couldn’t be farther from the reality, and it’s astonishing how unknown the world of auto racing is to many people. Racing is not just driving per se. Racing is the art of driving fast with a bunch of other like-minded idiots, who all risk their lives with the, widely misunderstood, willingness to endanger their life just to say they beat the other guy. Racing and racecar drivers are entirely different from driving on the street in a countless number of ways.

Formula racing is a term that refers to various forms of open wheeled single seater motorsport.

The best known of these formulæ are Formula One, Formula Two, and Formula Three. Common usage of "formula racing" encompasses other single seater series, including the GP2 Series, which replaced Formula 3000 (which had itself been the effective replacement for Formula Two).
