The Cars
Unlike NASCAR, which mandates the use of steel-bodied shells, CASCAR-approved cars consist of fiberglass bodyshells covering custom-made tube-frame racing chassis. Also, where NASCAR has strict rules concerning body shapes (in order to maintain as much parity as possible among the approved models), CASCAR's rules tend to be more lax. However, as in NASCAR, CASCAR cars' engines are normally-aspirated, pushrod V8 units producing approximately 500 horsepower. The carburetor (or carburettor, carb for short) is a device which mixes air and fuel for an internal_combustion engine. ...

The Tracks Present CASCAR events are held exclusively on short track ovals, permanent road courses, temporary road courses and street courses.

In recent years, new additions to NASCAR schedules have tended to be 1.5 mile oval tracks. It has been suggested that Dirt track racing in the U.S. be merged into this article or section. ...
