Ford just made a car that lapped the 12.9 mile Nürburgring in just over 6 minutes, making it the 3rd fastest lap ever by a production car https://arstechnica.com/cars/2026/04/a-production-ford-sets-third-fastest-time-ever-at-the-nurburgring/?utm_source=fark&utm_medium=website&utm_content=link&utm_campaign=fark&ICID=ref_fark #sports #racing #car #cool

Killing some time today by watching the JALOPY races from 1952 in Culver City, CA Stadium. This is what dirt track #racing looked like four years before I became a thing. Love the big-ass push bumpers on the front. Used when a backmarker won't get the hell out of the way of the leaders, or when P2 wants to send P1 an "attitude adjustment." https://youtu.be/-7Rt4B8j_-4?si=gNTBQx8_5-60-sD1

If at all interested in sprint car racing like I am, you have to bookmark this site I just found today. http://sprintcarratings.com/Default.aspx This guy must be a stats junkie, because this site's info goes on for-EV-er. It's like the pages they used to have in the daily papers showing every conceivable baseball statistic, except this is for all the sprint car divisions. Easy to search by driver, track, series, everything. Site is not pretty, but highly functional. #racing #SprintCars #GoFast #TurnLeft

Back when I was growing up, we spent many Saturday nights at Fresno's Kearney Bowl watching the "hardtops" race. One of these vintage cars is shown here, alongside a modern 410 sprint car. There are plenty of similarities to these old and new cars. But the design of aerodynamics (wings), 900HP engine packages and various suspension components has seen many improvements over the decades. Still, go fast, turn left works same as always. #racing #sprintcars #WoO #HighLimit #dirt

The winter break is over for U.S. sprint car #racing. First race tonight in Florida.

It’s kinda weird though, every time this driver** goes by, I get hungry. If a car goes by with “Pancakes” on the front of the wing, I am toast. With jam.
