[SIZE="5"]NASCAR Touring Division: Where
Stars Get Their Start[/SIZE]


MARK SAYS

Most stock-car drivers begin racing at a track near their home, where the need for traveling money isn’t issue. Once a driver conquers his home track championship, however, he often advances to one of NASCAR’s touring divisions, which travel to different racetracks within the same region during their season. Touring division competition is where drivers step up on the financial ladder and start signing up well-heeled sponsors to help finance their efforts, in hopes of reaching the top NASCAR series. Racing at this level is much more expensive than running at a home track, where crew members work for free and often are chosen from among a driver’s friends. It is less expensive, however, than racing in the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series, NASCAR Busch Series, or NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series.

Home and touring division tracks are generally less than a mile in length, compared with the much larger speedways in use by the premier series. The touring division, for example, doesn’t race at the 2.66-mile Talladega Superspeedway in Alabama. However, the short-tracks skills a driver hones during touring division competition can benefit him greatly when he reaches NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series or NASCAR Busch Series competition and races at tracks such as the half-mile Bristol Motor Speedway in Tennessee. When a driver jump from the touring division to one of NASCAR’s premier divisions, he is also able to earn a living as a professional racer. The following are brief descriptions of NASCAR’s different touring series:


GARAGE TALK

http://www.weeklyracingseries.com/info.asp?Series_ID=15

V NASCAR Dodge Weekly Series (NASCAR Whelen All-American Series*): Running at more than 70 short tracks across the country on a weekly basis, this series is the foundation of NASCAR. An early training ground for drivers, crew members, and officials, the NASCAR Dodge Weekly Series also creates hometown heroes for the fans. A wide variety of race cars are found in this series, including Late Model stock cars, Modifieds, Street Stocks, Trucks, Dirt Late Models, and Sportsman cars. Dodge has sponsored the series since 2002, with drivers competing at their home track for local prizes, as well as for a regional and national championship. Participating tracks are divided into geographic regions, offering teams and drivers at each facility a chance to compete against weekly stars from area tracks without leaving their home track. The NASCAR Dodge Weekly Series has been the starting point for many of today’s top drivers, including Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jeff and Ward Burton, Kurt Busch, Kevin Harvick, Bobby Labonte, Jamie McMurray, Elliott Sadler, and Greg Biffle.

V NASCAR AutoZone Elite Division(2004-2006* http://www.weeklyracingseries.com/story....ies_ID=10): Four separate series using identical cars comprise this division, which is designed to serve as a local driver’s first step towards NASCAR’s three national series. The Midwest Series, Northwest Series, Southeast Series, and Southwest Series compete on short tracks, superspeedways, and road courses, providing opportunities for teams and drivers to sharpen their skills and work toward their career goals. AutoZone, the nation’s leading auto parts retailer, joined as the title sponsor of this division in 2004. The NASCAR AutoZone Elite Division features 2,900-pound race cars using metal or fiberglass bodies, powered by 350 to 358 cubic-inch engines. Midwest Series events are held throughout Illinois, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and as far west as Colorado. The Northwest Series, stretching across Washington, Idaho, and Montana, gave rise to 2002 NASCAR Busch Series champion Greg Biffle. The Southeast Series covers Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, South Carolina, and Virginia, with 2003 NASCAR NEXTEL Cup champion Matt Kenseth getting his start here. The Southwest Series covers Arizona and California and ventures into Colorado for select races. Kurt Busch, Kevin Harvick, and Ron Hornaday, Jr., are some of this series’ most famous alumni.

http://www.nascarlocalracing.com/content...eries_ID=9

V NASCAR Busch North Series (Busch East Series* http://www.casella.com/racing/busch.asp) and West Series: In 2003, changes to the weight, engine rules, tires, wheelbase, and other areas were implemented to bring these two series under one rule book. These cars are powered by 350 to 358 cubic-inch V-8 engines with a maximum compression ratio of 12 to 1. The cars have a 105-inch wheelbase, weigh 3,100 pounds, and run on Goodyear bias-ply tires. The Busch North Series, which entered its 18th season in 2004, runs at tracks in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. The Busch west Series, which entered its 51st season in 2004, competes in Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona.

http://www.nascarlocalracing.com/content...eries_ID=6

V NASCAR Featherlite Modified Series (Whelen Modified Tour*): When NASCAR began more than 50 years ago, teams were permitted to “modify” their stock cars for better performance. The 1950s and 1960s-style coupes sprouted innovative suspension systems and better engines and soon, the cars looked and drove like nothing else in NASCAR. That tradition of innovation continued throughout the 1970s and 1980s, culminating in today’s NASCAR Featherlite Modified Series. As the only open-wheeled division of NASCAR, the cars in this popular series are unique in many ways. Featherlite Modified cars weigh 2,610 pounds and have a wheelbase of 107 inches. Hoosier bias-ply tires used to grip the track under the power provided by “small block” 350 to 360 cubic-inch engines. The Featherlite Modified Series competes throughout Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey on tracks ranging in size from a quarter-mile to the 1.058-mile oval at New Hampshire International Speedway.

So, You Want to Drive a Race Car?

Suppose you’re sitting at home one day on the couch watching a NASCAR race, and you decide that NASCAR racing is for you. You want to be a rich and famous driver and want to do it now. What’s the first step?

Although you can buy yourself NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series car if you have enough money and you can find a team willing to sell, that doesn’t mean you can sign up for the Daytona 500. NASAR issues its own racing licenses; in order to qualify, a competitor has to meet a long list of specifications, including having previous racing experience. You also have to have a lot of cash – or the ability to get a lot of cash from sponsors, friends, or a rich uncle. Racing isn’t cheap. Running a good car at a local track can cost $40,000 per season, and an engine can cost another $20,000. You also need more money to maintain the car; buy tires, oil, and gas; and fix the car when you dent it. And believe me, you will wreck it – because every driver, no matter how talented he or she may be, runs into obstacles every once in awhile. Some more often than others.


Pre-stock car (not prehistoric) vehicles
If you don’t have enough money to buy a full-fledged stock car, you can race more inexpensively with a go-kart. Go-karts are similar to the ones you see on tracks adjacent to miniature golf courses. They are tiny vehicles – tiny in relation to stock cars, that is – with engines attached to the back. But starting out in go-karts doesn’t mean you’re starting out in racing kindergarten. Certain go-karts can reach up to 100 mph, and they even race on a course at Daytona International Speedway, using part of its high-banked track. Also, you have to sharpen the same driving skills to drive a go-kart that you do for a NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series car or a NASCAR Busch Series car. Ricky Rudd showed the virtues of go-kart when he went straight from them to NASCAR NEXTEL Cup racing. Go-karts are a viable option – and a great place to get started – if you’re itching to race.


TIP
You can also find all sorts of programs for kids who want to start young. Midget cars are one of them. Midgets are specialized open-wheel race cars that are small, fast, lightweight, and have no fenders. They graduate in size, going from quarter midgets to three-quarter midgets to midgets, the largest cars in the class. Quarter midgets are the cars kids squeeze into for some fun, Jeff Gordon started out in midget cars, so you must be able to learn a thing or two there.





[SIZE="3"]MARK SAYS
[/SIZE]
My son, Matt, started racing quarter midgets several years ago, and watching him race is one of the most exciting things in my life. It’s been fun to teach him all about the engine, the racing, and the competition – but it’s up to him to figure out how to win. He’s already done that by winning the championships in his division, showing that he has some racing talent in his genes. Even though he’s young and is involved in the sport mainly to have fun, he’s developing valuable skills when driving and controlling a car. Who knows – those skills may help him win a NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series championship someday!


You’ve got a car – now what?
If you’ve scrounged up enough money to buy a stock car and want to begin your training, what should you do next? Taking a trip to your local short track is a start. There, you can pick up an application for NASCAR license. Your car owner and your pit crew (everyone directly involved in your race team at the track) need to get a license, too. (See Chapter 6 for the lowdown on your racing team members.) After you receive NASCAR license (sent to you or to the track), you’re ready to race.

Memorize the rules and get a crew

MARK SAYS
Which your NASCAR license, your also receive a rule book for the series in which you plan to compete. In that book, you can find a rule for every aspect of racing – especially for all the details and measurements of your car – so you should plan to tweak your car for at least a week or two before setting a date for your first race. In the meantime, gather up people for your pit crew because you’ll need those people – at least two of them – on race day. Your pit crew will be in charge of your car, tires, and fuel, and will talk to you on the radio during the race. So when choosing a pit crew, choose carefully. Your 70-pound kid brother may not be the best choice.


Moving up and out
As you become successful on your local short track, you can move up to a touring series, which travels from track to track – and sometimes all over the nation. To be eligible for a touring series, you have to first get a license for that particular series, just as you do when you first start racing at your local track.

[SIZE="5"]The better the series,
the harder it is to get there[/SIZE]
When you want to try your hand at the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, the NASCAR Busch Series, or NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series racing, NASCAR officials get more involved in the licensing process. They do this mostly because they don’t want some unskilled guy off the street getting in a truck or a car and taking out the whole field because he doesn’t know how to drive. Before you get on the track in NASCAR’s top series, you have to fill out a resume and application and then send it to NASCAR for review. Officials license you to race in those series when they determine that you’re good enough, judging by your resume and records in other series. Your car owner, race team, and everyone who participates on your team also has to obtain a license – the only difference is that they don’t have submit a resume. After you’re approved, you have to pay an annual fee for your license.

Working on a Crew
It’s much easier to become a member of a race team than it is to become a driver, mainly because each car has only one driver but dozen of team members. Some team employees who work at the shop during the week also travel to an event and serve as race-day crew members, changing tires or putting in gas. In recent years, however, the majority of race day crew members are specialists who don’t work at the shop, while other team members, such as engineers, fabricators, and painters, don’t travel on weekends. In this increasingly specialized field, one way to start working for a team is sweeping the shop floor – not a very glamorous job but an avenue that can be followed by someone wishing to eventually expand his duties.


TIP
You can’t really become a NASCAR mechanic if you can’t fix a car. Some people learn all about cars after getting their initial jobs at race shops. They show interest and learn from experts, all without getting caught under people’s feet. I’ve got to warn you, though, that it may take you a long time to get promoted from sweeper to mechanic or from sweeper to fabricator (the ones who build the outside, or body, of the car) if you’re learning along the way. If you already have a working knowledge of cars, you’ll be promoted much faster.

Another way to sharpen your car skills is to go to a vocational school and take classes on how to fix engines or work on bodies. Some schools offer a specific curriculum that focuses on teaching students how to build and repair NASCAR-type cars. In fact, NASCAR has its own such school, the NASCAR Technical Institute, which it operates in partnership with Universal Technical Institute opened on July 1, 2002, in Mooresville, North Carolina, just north of Charlotte, which is known as “Race City U.S.A” because of the many NASCAR shops located there. In the future, NASCAR plans open technical institutes in other cities.

Pit crews aren’t the pits

[COLOR="#0000ff"]If you don’t want to work on the car all week at the shop but want help out during pit stops on race day, there are opportunities for you in NASCAR racing. (See Chapter 10 for more details on making pit stops.) You may have a tough time getting a job on a pit crew if you don’t know somebody on the team, though, so be prepared to schmooze or make friends fast. Also, pit stops have become such a big factor in racing that you have to try out for the pit crew before you get the job. You’d better lift some weights and practice changing tires before you show up at a race team’s door.

The easiest way to get on a crew is to be willing to do anything, including sweeping floors, to get your foot in the door. If you’re an efficient, enthusiastic floor sweeper, people will notice you and you’ll get promoted before you know it. It’s true what say: floor sweeper today, crew chief tomorrow. Well, maybe it takes longer than that, but that strategy has definitely worked in the past. Some people I know, including my former crew chiefs Robin Pemberton and Steve Hmiel, wanted to be on a race team when they were young and were brave enough to make a bold move. They just packed up, left their hometown, and headed for Charlotte, North Carolina, where most of the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup race shops are, hoping to get a job (any job!) with a team. Obviously, it worked out for Robin and Steve, but others have gone that route successfully, too.[/COLOR]

Going Fast without Going Broke

If setting up a racing operation is out of your budget, there are other ways to experience the thrill of driving a NASCAR-regulation car at above-average speeds. Many racing schools teach the fundamentals of on-track maneuvering, such as safely learning to run down straightaways and trough corners as well as how to pass. These include the Richard Petty Driving Experience, which travels the country and allows you to either ride along with a professional or get behind the wheel yourself, and the Fast Track Driving School, which operates out of Lowe’s Motor Speedway in Concorde, North Carolina. Students divide their time between classroom instruction and actually driving on the speedway.

In this part...

NASCAR stock cars have no doors, no speedometers, and no stereo with a sub-woofer. If these facts bewilder you, dive into this part. Tucked into nearly every paragraph, you can find information about NASCAR race cars and how they differ from passenger cars. In the end, you realize why it’s impractical and impossible to enter your four-door Ford Taurus in the Daytona 500, even though a herd Ford Tauruses will be racing.

Even if you’re fluent in several languages, understanding the talk of NASCAR-talk still be difficult. Sway bar? Carburetor restrictor plate? Engine dynamometer? These phrases are commonly used in NASCAR racing, but not at your bingo parlor or hair salon. You can’t even find most of them in your dictionary. But never fear, I define those words and plenty more in this part.

In addition to helping you understand the basic components of a stock car, this part fills you in on the rules and inspections of NASCAR racing. You meet all the people who have to follow those rules, including the important members of race teams. You also find out that I do other things besides drive a race car on Sundays!

Chapter 4

What Makes Them Stock Cars?

In This Chapter
• Finding out what a stock car is
• Looking at a car’s body and components
• Checking out the gauges inside the car
• Taking a look at the seats
• Examining tire differences
• Speaking of technology

NASCAR racing has changed since its early days of passenger cars with numbers painted or taped on the sides – the cars raced were often the family car you drove to the track. Races featured cars that fans could go out and buy off the showroom floor of the local dealership the same day they saw them race. Manufacturers wanted their cars to win so they could benefit from a unique type of advertising – as the saying went, “Win on Sunday, sell on Monday.”

Today, however, the cars are anything but “stock.” They are custom built from the ground up. The only thing vaguely stock about them is the general shape of the body. Teams have engineered ways to make the cars’ bodies more aerodynamic, devised methods of producing more horsepower while keeping the engine sturdy, and, with much help and guidance from NASCAR, have devised new safety features to further protect the drivers. After all these innovations, describing the differences between miniature golf and the PGA tour.

In this chapter, I discuss the major differences between passenger cars and NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series cars, giving you an overview of what you see on the track every weekend.

[Normi]

What Cars Will I See Racing?

Four (2007***) car models now make up the entries in the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series:

• Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS*, Chevrolet Impala SS**
• Ford Fusion*, Ford Fusion**
• Dodge Avenger*, Dodge Avenger**
• Toyota Camry*, Toyota Camry**

* - current car
** - COT (Car of Tomorrow)

The manufacturers all have a staff of engineers working in their racing division – located in or near Detroit – in order to make their brand more competitive on the track. They work on developing better aerodynamics, engines, and engine parts, and also work with their respective race teams to try to get an advantage over the other car makes. But, as I talk about in Chapter 5, NASCAR officials try to keep that from happening because their goal is for every car to have an equal chance of winning so that fans aren’t bored by the same car and the same driver winning each race.


TIP
The race car versions of the Dodge Avenger, Ford Fusion, Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS (Impala SS), and Toyota Camry look quite similar to each other, so it’s not easy to tell one car from another if you’re not familiar with racing. So manufacturers slap the name of the car on every vehicle. For example, the Chevrolet have a big decal with the words ”Monte Carlo SS” or ”Impala SS” on the nose of the car, Ford splash a big “Fusion” and Toyota a big “Camry” in the same spot, and Dodges have an “Avenger” decal where everybody can see it. When in doubt, check the front of the car to know which model is which.

Manufacturer loyalty

While some fans cheer for a particular driver or team, others have an allegiance to a specific car manufacturer. For example, if your grandfather drove a Chevy his whole life your dad drove a Chevy his entire life, you may be persuaded to root for Chevys on race day. It’s that kind of loyalty that car manufacturers love – and it’s that kind of loyalty that keeps them in racing.

*** - с 2007 года в NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series участвует Toyota и остальные производители выставили другие модели по сравнению с сезоном 2004 года (Chevrolet Monte Carlo, Ford Taurus и Dodge Inrepid).

[Normi]

What Is “Stock” about a Stock Car?

Not much of a NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series car is similar to a passenger car. Stock cars are built for speed and safety, not take the kids to soccer practice, so they don’t have cup holders or vanity mirrors, and none have an automatic transmission. Performance, not comfort or convenience, is what counts – which explains why stock cars last an average of three years, unlike passenger cars, which are manufactured for longevity.

The following are some things that you may be used to seeing on a passenger car but won’t find on a NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series car:

• Doors: That’s why drivers climb through the window opening to get in.

• Windows: There’s just a window-shaped opening covered with safety netting to prevent the driver’s head and arms from going outside the car during a crash. On the passenger’s side, teams install a plastic window that doesn’t roll down, but only for tracks 1.5 miles or longer. On tracks shorter than that, there’s nothing covering the windows opening.

• A glass windshield: In race cars, the windshield is in three sections instead of just one and it’s made of Lexan, which is hard, shatterproof plastic.
• Back seats or passenger seats: There’s just one seat – the driver’s seat/
• Brake lights or headlights: The lights you see the rave car aren’t real – they’re just decals/
• Speedometer
• Gas gauge
• Storage space in the trunk
• Stereo system or speakers
• An air conditioning or heating system
• Automatic transmission
• Anti-lock brakes
• Cruise control
• A key ignition: Drivers just flip a switch get the car going.
• Air bags
• Locks
• Glove compartment
• A horn

The body


GARAGE TALK

The body of a NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series car is only partly stock. The hood, the rear deck lid (or trunk lid, as it’s normally called), the roof, the front grille, and the bumper panels are similar to the ones on passenger cars because they’re obtained from the manufacturer, although they’re modified a bit per NASCAR’s specifications (see Figure 4-1). Car builders make the rest of stock-car bodies from scratch. The few factory-made parts on NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series cars, however, make them recognizable as cousins of the Avengers, Fusions, Camry’s, and Monte Carlos that you see driving down the highway. It also helps that teams place decals of headlights on the cars to make them look similar to passenger cars.

Такой вопрос:

Почему в квале многие пилоты проезжают только один быстрый круг, не зависимо от того, что этот первый круг не самый лучший по сравнению с другими пилотами?

И ещё:
По какой причине пилоты проезжают квалу, в некоторых случаях, лучше, чем в первой практике, а в некоторых хуже?

[Sudden]

потому что второй круг будет хуже
из-за температуры и износа шин

[Foma]

потому что второй круг будет хуже

Не факт
Кинни Уоллас тому подтверждение на данную минуту
Ты хочешь сказать, что за один круг износ шин такой, что нет мазы побороться на втором круге?

И потом, могу привести множество примеров где второй круг проходится быстрее, чем первый.

Возможно иногда гонщики проезжают первый круг как подготолвительный и не губят резину, а иногда наоборот на первом круге идут по максимуму и нет смысла идти на второй. Это лишь моё предположение

[Normi]

Я думаю это только потому что машина "экстремально" настроена на квалу. В принципе на сессию квалификации не такой уж богатый выбор в настройках, так как вносить какие то глобальные изменения после квалификации запрещается правилами. Очень важная деталь настройки в квалификации - tape (лента которой заклеивают радиатор машины, чтобы достичь максимальной прижимной силы). В большинстве случаев гонщик отказывается от второго круга по причине перегрева. Так как если он убьет движек, то автоматически на старте его отправят в конец пелетона за смену двигателя или его ремонт.

Чем выше температура воздуха во время квалификации, тем больше таких вот гонщиков с одним быстрейшим кругом. Бывали случаи, когда почти все проезжали только по одному кругу.

[Sudden]

И потом, могу привести множество примеров где второй круг проходится быстрее, чем первый.

ну это от трассы зависит

Давно заметил одну вещь, но как то не доходили руки спросить...

Вот у Клинта Бойера, №07 на машине написан так, что если его перевернуть - получается четко 20...

Чем вызвано такое написание номера?
Какието ассоциации с №20? Какие???
Или просто шрифт такой?

[skom]

Нет, это чётко номер 07 - когда джонни уолкер стал спонсором машины №30, ей дали номер 07, так как пойло ихнее паршивое называлось "Old No. 7".

Jack Daniel's
А на счет того, что "пойло паршивое " - я бы поспорил, но нет желания, т.к. на вкус и цвет...
Jack Daniel's, конечно, уступает многим другим маркам whiskey, хотя whiskey как таковым и не является (Джек Дениелс - бренди. А надпись whiskey они просто купили).
Мне, например, не понятен вкус Jameson, хотя они считаются одиними из лучших. А так-же Johnnie Walker Red Label больше по вкусу, чем Black Label, хотя Black Label стОит в 2 раза дороже (Грин Label, Блю Label, Голд Label попробовать не довелось)...
Так что, skom, довольно спорна твоя реплика

[skom]

Видишь ли, дружище Foma, для меня вот уже года три любой напиток, содержащий наркотический яд этанол - паршивое пойло, и место ему в унитазе сортира или в мусорнике. И не имеет значения, бормотуха ли это, или элитное марочное вино и коньяк за 100 тыс. баксов для аристократов-дегенератов - действующее вещество одно и тоже.
