Sprint cars are the most demanding race car on any track in America today. Successfully racing a sprint car requires a perfect setup, careful planning and lightning fast reactions. Devil’s Bowl is the home of sprint car racing in Texas.

The sprinters have a 16 square foot top wing, and a hard compound right rear tire. These work together to minimize the impact of different horsepower among the competing cars. Methanol (alcohol) is the fuel.

As these cars charge around the track, they reach speeds up to 130 m.p.h. Safety features include five point belts to keep the driver firmly in position, helmets, padded roll cage bars, firesuits and arm restraints.

Limited Modifieds
