Yep but have to agree with DF. Especially the low roof.
Dirt late models are . Looking forward to this event. Which team is running her car? Have changed the topic title to make this the general event topic. Last edited by FIRE; 29 May 2012 at 16:45. |

Why are they called Late Models?
Why is the bodywork above the wheels so high, thus making it so hard to get into/ out off the car? |

Late model dirt cars are the coolest thing in racing today and all they are is a V8 planted in a tube frame with some sheet metal bent over it. They go quick around Eldora. |

The fender height allows for suspension travel clearance. Sort of Nascar meets WRC. |

They should have a late-model dirt race on the Cup calendar. Doesn't Charlotte have a dirt track? They could do it midweek between the All Star race and the 600.
Imagine these guys in heats and finals, for points! Fantastic. |
