Why Is Drag Racing Bad

Recently in 4th hour Technology systems, we designed, built, and raced our CO2 dragster cars. We were given the opportunity to (within preset design constraints) design and create racing dragsters to compete on the track. For my design, I decided that the simpler the design, the more aerodynamic it would be. I didn’t have any prior experience with this, so my design decision was nearly a shot in the dark.

The first Formula One World Championship race was at the Silverstone Circuit in England. The cars were built for high top speed. The cars were very dangerous and the races were held with no medical professionals. The death tolls in races were high, 13 drivers were killed in F1 cars in the first decade. Now all cars must have a fire extinguishing system that will activate in the cockpit and engine bay in case of a fire. It must be able to be activated by the driver when they are seated normally with his seat belts and function even if the car’s electrical system fails or if the car is flipped over. In order to easily remove a driver from a car in the event of an

Large portions of us won't not know that Motocross is like bike game dashing. Be that as it may, not at all like cruiser game hustling, Motocross dashing is held inside of an encased rough terrain circuits. Motocross starts from the British scrambling rivalry and is an exceptionally well known dashing game.

NASCAR started back in the late 1920’s and 30’s. It started when the 18th amendment banned production and possession of alcohol and prohibition had begun. Drinking alcohol wasn't illegal. You could make it,just not sell it and that's what the people did. They began making a drink known as moonshine. The word moonshine came from the meaning of running dirt roads at night by the help of the moon so they could see. They made moonshine because of how easy the ingredients were to get.

Drag racing, has only one lap when Nascar, has about one-hundred to four-hundred. When a Nascar driver has won, the driver gives exhilaration to the audience by doing doughnuts or burnouts. Also, Nascar has superior stadiums and tracks than Drag racing does. When having superior stadiums, it gives people space to feel comfortable.

The history of Nascar starts way back in the day when moonshining was hitting the tipping point with all of the bootleggers buy cars and making them go faster, to get away from the police. Bootlegging started when the prohibition

In today’s society, racing has become a very popular sport. Whether going to the racing events in various destinations or tuning in on the television, many people support it. There are many different types of racing, however the more popular types are NASCAR and Formula One racing. These two racing styles share a common goal, and that is to cross the finish line in first place. Even with this common goal there are many differences between the two. The culture, rules and regulations, and the races.

NASCAR is one of the most rapidly growing sports in the world. There are people who think that NASCAR is just a bunch of hicks going around in circles, but it takes skill to drive at two-hundred miles per hour. I am going to talk about the history of NASCAR, early drivers of NASCAR, the three NASCAR divisions, the rules, and the new technology.

The dragster car is a race car that is for drag racing, racing that is two or more cars racing for a short distance. We are starting a unit on drag racing to learn about acceleration and other things such as mph and speed. This will help if we wish to be an engineer or mechanic for cars. Basically anything that transportation-wise. The actually term of drag racing is because unlike other racing sports, drag-racing is racing over a short distance with more than, at least one car. Students race these model cars because, one, for enjoyment or for training to become an auto-mechanic or engineer like stated earlier. The dragster is also run off things like CO2. Also, they give a chance for the students to be able to design their own car, thus making for

The engines roar and, and the cars are fast. I really enjoy watching sprint cars. One time my family took a trip to Brandon, South Dakota to watch them at Husets Speedway. It was really loud because there was over 50 cars running at once. Husets is a famous track and people come from all over to watch. The track is only three-eighths of a mile and the cars are going at least 100 miles per hour. People watch the crashes and cheer because there least favorite driver is out of the race and of course is ok. Sometimes I feel bad for those who crash cause they have to spend money to fix their car. Some times my favorite crashes are the roll overs, sometimes seeing wrecked cars is one of the best things. The sprint cars body is very complicated the

also a sport enjoyed by many people all over the world. To get involved in

Racing is always a thrill for me and for half of my family. It was always my uncle, dad, grandpa and grandma, and I that had a passion for watching or actually racing. My brother and my cousins and aunt didn 't really care for it. Before each race, I will have fear effect me. I always questioned everything while sitting and waiting to start. I would ask myself if there is enough gas in the car or is the tires good enough. I was always double checking before getting in and going out there. I constantly see cars flip over or crash and get caught on fire. It scares me but its a thrill. Racing on a dirt track has its benefits. Sliding and drifting on the track has helped me learn to actually know what to do for when I’m on an ice road

The man who started it all the drift king Kunimitsv Takahashi. He started when he was racing he come to corners and clutch kick and start sliding around the corner while maintaining his speed then he would come out of the corner straighten out and and kept going and keep his speed while other racers slowed way down to get around

The intricacies that are involved in turning a regular car into a “Street Racer” are many; and racers pour their souls into these magnificent machines. After seeing “the Fast and the Furious” many people have or wanted to become involved in street racing. They do not realize that this is a sport that takes knowledge, hard work, and nerve. Many of these racers have spent their lives under a car, learning the trade and improving upon it. As I have learned, this is not just a hobby; it is a way of life.

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
