On that big day, you will not want to be caught unprepared. Eldora Speedway weather forecasts will be able to give a person a heads up on what to expect while at the races. They are very detailed and give both the high and the low for each day as well as what the wind strength will be. They are even able to predict if it will remain stable or unstable.
The Craftsman Truck Series is pickup truck racing and is operated by the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing. These pickups are modified for this specific purpose. They are mechanically similar to the coupe shaped cars and the only difference is that they sport a more boxy shape to the cab. These are not designed to give a good aerodynamics the way stock cars are.
On some speedways they hold a sort of racing school where one is taught the finer skills of the motor vehicle control. This is done with experienced former racers. Many young hopefuls who are interested in joining in on this fun will need to be guided and nurtured as this is a sport where eye-hand co-ordination is very important.
There are normally five heats that are run in the Nascar series and there are 25 trucks involved. Any driver that did not advance then automatically did not receive any participation points. This has all changed and the distance of 5 heats has now been changed to either eight or ten laps. A random draw is now used to see the qualifying order. Before this was done according to the speeds raced in the practice round. Another point that has been reviewed is that if one wishes to make a pit stop they can, they are no longer mandatory.
Many racers prefer to use Goodyear tires and since 1997 they have been the sole provider for all three of the top divisions. The major divisions are the Craftsman Truck Series, Nationwide Series and the Sprint Cup Series. In a typical racing weekend teams can use up to 2000 tires.
There are several components that are unique to any racing tire. The Apex is what will control the stiffness and rigidity of the sidewall. The Bead which is the area that allows contact between the tire and the rim. The Racing Eagle tires can have two of these depending on the type of track that one will be racing on. The Carcass Piles is basically the backbone of the tire. This provides strength to the top of the tire as well as providing support.
The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series is named after its current sponsor. It was originally known as Strictly Stock Series and then became known as the Grant National Series. The champion is determined by a point system. Points are given according to where they finished and how many laps that they led.
It does not matter what the weather is, all the races will go on. These are televised and are a very popular form of entertainment. Many people will take a day's leave just to ensure that they will be able to get a seat to watch this action live.
