Speedcars are a specific type of speedway racing car. They are often known as midgets in the United States, and speedcars in Australia. Whatever they are called, they are among the fastest and most exciting forms of motorsport. They are purpose-built racing machines, with light-weight tubular frames, open wheels, and powerful race engines offering very high power-to-weight ratios. They are usually raced on dirt ovals, but there are also some pavement midget tracks.
Speedcars are often raced on short tracks, and they frequently compete in races that last only a few laps. This makes them exciting to watch, as the cars are constantly battling for position. The races are also relatively short, so there is little downtime between races. This makes speedcar racing a very spectator-friendly sport.
Speedcars first appeared in Australia in 1934, and they quickly became popular. Today, there are speedcar races held all over the world. The World Speedcar Championship is the most prestigious speedcar racing event, and it is held annually in Australia.
If you are interested in seeing a speedcar race, there are a few things you should know. First, most speedcar races are held on dirt tracks. This means that the cars will be kicking up a lot of dust, so it is a good idea to bring a dust mask or bandanna to cover your nose and mouth. Second, the races are usually held at night, so you will need to bring a flashlight. Finally, speedcar racing can be loud, so you may want to bring earplugs.
