Touring car racing
Touring car race is a popular sport all around the globe. Touring cars, which are specially modified streetcars that are built to race in auto racing, are called "touring cars". The cars are made from a standard body shell but nearly every component can be modified to make them more aerodynamic. They can have aerodynamic aids in the front and rear. The cars are then raced on open tracks or closed circuits.
Stock car racing
Stock car racing is where modified cars race each other on a big track. The sport originated in the United States but has spread to Mexico as well as Canada, Great Britain, New Zealand, and other countries. The technology of stock cars has advanced over the years and now boasts over 1,000 horsepower.
Bracket racing
Bracket racing is a game that's very similar to chess. The players start in staging lanes and then decide what speed they want to dial in. Each car has a unique speed dial-in. The best time is determined when you combine many strategies.
Sportsman racing

While they aren't very fast, they are extremely powerful. Many Sportsman drivers spend thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours to practice their craft. This allows them to earn bragging rights at home.
Drag racing
Drag racing is a sport that involves two or more cars or motorcycles racing down a track. The aim is to be first vehicle to cross the finish-line. The winner is the vehicle that crosses the finish line first.
NASCAR
NASCAR, a motorsport that incorporates physical exertion and competitiveness, is one example of this. Drivers must be able drive at high speeds and avoid crashing into other cars. Safety regulations are also important in this sport.
