TECHNIQUE OF A NASCAR

Structure

The NASCAR equipment can decide on three models different from cars: Ford Fusion, Chevrolet Montecar it and Dodge Charger. A NASCAR car is basically a rectangular tubular structure of high resistance, covered by a solid and very light body. The aerodynamic study of the same is in charge of each mark and must respect certain lineamientos of the original model of street. The tubular structure of the car is developed by each equipment.

Motor

The motors must be of 8 cylinders in V with carburetor of four mouths. Its maximum piston displacement is of 5,900 CC. Its compression is of 12.0:1. These impellers reach a approximate power of 775 HP to almost 8000 RPM. The power and resistance of these motors are their more significant qualities. They are preparations to compete more than 500 miles to the RPM top.

Transmission

Reverse box manual of four speeds. Numerous relations for the extensive variety of ovals exist that crosses the category. The configuration of a box for ovals like Michigan or Talladega, is much of the used ones in Bristol or Martinsville.

Address

The direction system is of pinion and rack. It includes a attending system of power. The long duration of the races, the power of the cars and its weight, justify the use of this assistant of direction.

Brakes

Brake to disc in the four wheels. The same are constructed in steel of high resistance.

Capacities

The fuel tank allows to store a maximum of 22 gallons. The cooling system by water accumulates 4 gallons.

Suspension

As much the front suspension as back is independent. The front configuration is of two arms in “A”. The back is of floating solid axes. They use front and back torsion bars.

Rims

Advantages: 15 xs 10 inches. Backs: 15 xs 14 inches.

Dimensions

Length overall: 203 inches. Width: 74 inches. Height: 51 inches. Front and back trail: 60,5 inches. Distance of the floor: 4,5 inches.

Weight

3400 pounds including pilot, fuel, coolants and lubricants.
