FAQ

What types of cars are used in racing car?

This gives them an edge over other racers because they can easily overtake others at high speed and then pull away from them when they're not looking.

Most of the fastest cars are very light. This allows them to accelerate quickly and gain a lot of speed. This also means that they have less power, which restricts how far they are able to travel in a short time. They need to make efficient use of energy.

How To

How to begin racing in another country

First, find a club in your area where you can practice and compete. Racing in other countries can be very difficult because there are different laws regarding driving. Some countries prohibit drivers from overtaking at any point along the road. Some countries allow only overtaking at a roundabout. Some countries require vehicles to make a distinct sound when they enter a roundabout. It is a good idea to check the regulations of each country before you travel overseas. By doing this, you will not be charged with breaking the law and won't face any ticket from the police.
