NASCAR race cars get transported to races for good reasons.
What is the anatomy of a NASCAR racing car? NASCAR race cars are specifically designed for motorsport. They share the same name and shape as their mainstream counterparts. As an example, take the Toyota Camry NASCAR racing car.
However, NASCAR race cars are equipped with lightweight Lexan, cold-rolled sheet metal panels, window nets, TV cameras, hood pins and treadless Goodyear Eagle racing tire.
Oh, and NASCAR race cars do not have mufflers that can muffle the engine noise. Their first gears travel up to 60 mph.
To protect themselves in an accident, NASCAR racers are required to sit inside a roll-cage as they race cars. In case you were wondering, no doors are available for NASCAR race cars. They also don’t have side mirrors or lights.
These are the reasons NASCAR race cars are illegal on the roads. They are not compliant with safety regulations.
YouTuber TheStradman didn’t hesitate to try a dangerous (and illegal!) stunt: drive a NASCAR racecar to McDonald’s, and then buy drive-thru snacks.
The YouTuber had a hard time driving the NASCAR race car. The YouTuber can’t get the car off the first gear and stalls so many times. Plus, the scorching heat under the sun took a lot of fluids from his body and that of his passenger. They almost ran into a police officer while they were passing through a construction zone.
We don’t condone the driving of non-street-legal vehicles on public roads. However, this video will show you why. NASCAR race cars are often transported to racing events for a reason.
