CO2 Laser Race Car Propulsion Post Engine Exhaust Enhancement

Sunday, August 1, 2010 10:33 PM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

By Lance Winslow

We love to watch car races and Americans have both a love for the automobile and a love for competitive racing, but what about the future of racing with jet cars or better yet laser powered ground transportation propulsion systems?

What if we re-designed the racecar motors and powerful engines of today and modernized them with a 10-fold of innovative futuristic research and development. Basically I am talking about building the next generation of CO2 Laser Powered racecar motors which will take auto racing in the Indy Car Series and NASCAR to a whole new level. How is that possible Lance, you ask?

Well consider a diesel- powered motor, which is designed to put out good power and lots of pollution. Pollution you say? I though environmentalism is on the rise along with Al Gore’s Doom and Gloom of Global Warming and Climate Change? Yes well hear me out on this idea. We run smaller diesel motors that put out more CO2 not less and then we take the exhaust and run it thru a large number of parallel pipes which somewhat restrict its flow.

Next we put a reflector in each of the pipes and hook them up to one laser, which sends light into each tube over cooking the CO2 and use that for our propulsion. It will burn up all the CO2 and cause a significant reaction, which we can use for additional propulsion. Lets run our racecars on God’s creation; Let there be light. Gentleman and Ladies Start Your Engines. Consider all this in 2006.

Electric Race Cars Are Hitting The Race Tracks

Thursday, July 29, 2010 10:31 PM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

By James Thomlison

Who would have ever considered that they would be watching motor racing where all of the cars would have electric motors?

Well it might sound far fetched but the reality of the situation is, it will be coming to a race track near you sooner than you might think. For years there have been electric cars performing astoundingly at the drag strip where they only require their power for a few seconds but they have certainly proven that an electric motor can perform with the best of them albeit for a very short time.

Electric vehicles have always been limited by their batteries, both in the charge they can hold and in the weight that is necessary to get enough power from them.

This is already changing with more racers using laptop batteries to power their electric vehicles. They can use several thousand batteries to power one vehicle but this helps to reduce the weight of the vehicle by several hundred pounds when compared to the use of a few conventional batteries.

There are still some problems to contend with when using laptop batteries, with the most concern due to the heat that they can generate. It won't be long before such issues have been addressed and just like the computer and the digital camera, the electric car batteries will get smaller, more powerful and more efficient.

Once that happens, you can expect to see them dominating the race tracks as they have done in their divisions on the drag strip.

Translucent Aluminum Motor Blocks For Race Car Engine Inspections

Monday, July 26, 2010 10:29 PM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

By Lance Winslow

There is no doubt that auto racing is a very dangerous sport, and the cost to be involved in auto racing just to buy the engines requires sponsorship of very large corporations that can afford those hefty costs. When a racecar engine block cracks or has a problem, oil spews all over the racetrack and it makes it quite dangerous.

Cars spin out very easily, and all the oil coming over the driver's windscreen makes it hard for him (or her) to see, and can cause them to crash. To prevent all this it makes sense to monitor the racecar engines very closely.

Now, there may be a new technology to help with all that and to do it in real time, without having to tear down the engine after every race. In fact, these inspections can be done in seconds during the race when a car comes in for a pit stop. Let me explain this new technology.

Some scientists in Hamburg Germany have found a way to take all aluminum atoms and use micro-lasers to remove electrons. By doing this they create what they call a fourth state of matter, and it makes deal will have translucent or invisible in this case.

Now imagine having an engine block or the head of an engine which was translucent, this would allow immediate inspection of all the major components to see if things are wearing right. It would also allow the mechanics to save time, and pull cars from the race or from practice runs whose engines were about to blow.

This is a huge safety issue and it could save hundreds of thousands of dollars during the racing season. Please consider all this.

Drag Racing Car Numbers & Dial-Ins

Friday, July 23, 2010 10:27 PM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

By Julie McKee

Over the weekend I was asked to help out in the drag strip's tower as one of the workers had a relative who was seriously ill. They helped me try and learn the system with a crash course in it. Being in the tower gave me a new perspective of racing and made me appreciate more the hard job they have up there, especially working with the computer system they have.

One thing I noticed that is a big problem, is being able to read the car numbers and dial in's. They sit approximately 80 feet from the line I'm guessing and trying to read shoe polish and people's writing from that distance is a real challenge even with binoculars! Most regular racers do a good job, but there are some that are so bad, we have to ask the starter to tell us and that can hold up the race.

For those who do not race often, please understand how important it is that the tower be able to read your car number and dial in. It needs to be written on the top right side of your windshield and on the right side of your car, on the window if it's a door car. They need to be written on the right side of a dragster and bike as well, not just on the windshield. The numbers need to be big enough, dark enough and legible. Some just slap on one coat of shoe polish for the night and it can't be read from that distance. Please go over your numbers a few times with the polish and make sure it's dark enough and written big enough. Using white or bright yellow or green polish is preferred over red and blue, especially at night. If you are using led lights, make sure they are turned up during the day and turned down a little at night.

If the numbers are put on the side of a dragster or bike they should be a contrasting color to the paint. Having numbers matching the color scheme of the car or written in script look real pretty, but they are extremely hard to see from the tower especially at night. Metallic numbers also are hard to read at night with the glare of the track lights.

Another issue are cars that have more than one car number on them. This is where a car may have more than one driver who has a permanent number. Make sure that the number(s) not being used are clearly marked out. You cannot see one swipe of shoe polish from the tower. Use a piece of black electrical tape or something that draws a line clearly through the number not being used so the tower knows which car number you want to use.

I have learned how important being able to read those numbers are and realize I need to make my car's number bigger. Keep in mind, that if the people in the tower cannot read the numbers, they have to ask the starter to read it to them and that holds the cars up on the line as they have to enter the info then or re-enter incorrect info. That all takes time causing the hold up. So be considerate of those in the tower doing their best to get numbers right and remember to always check your dial in before you stage.

Racing Cars From Your Sofa

Most car racing fans enjoy watching every minute of the action either live or in the comfort of their own homes. I bet a lot of these people wonder what it would be like to get behind the wheel of one of those cars out on the track. In recent years, a number of racing schools have offered wealthy fans an opportunity to do so. For the more economical folks like me, you can get a much cheaper version of that experience right from your couch. All you need is a gaming console and a TV and you're ready to go. There are a number of racing video games out on the market, but there are two established names that set the standard.

The Forza Motorsport series is one of the best options for those with an Xbox 360. In the most recent release, there are more than 300 cars available and a whole slew of tracks and customizations. Most races in the normal game play are designed to be circuit events and drivers are awarded money based upon how well they performed. Microsoft's wireless racing wheel brings an entire new level of difficulty to the game. Vehicles handle just as they would in real life and are susceptible to damage on the track. If you hit a wall and damage your front end or tires, it will become extremely difficult to steer the vehicle. Many fans of the game design custom artwork and paintjobs. Users can race against each other and trade cars via the Xbox Live gaming network.

If you're more of a PlayStation fan, the Gran Turismo series is the pinnacle of racing games. Although the latest release was intended for the PS2 platform, PS3 users can still enjoy the rich game play and large selection of cars. Gran Turismo 5, a PS3 exclusive that is wildly anticipated by fans, is still in development. Limited information about the current car line up and game mechanics is currently available. It is expected to play much like previous incarnations of the franchise which will appeal to just about everyone that has ever seen the game played. The GT series is known for extremely realistic handling and customizations. Car physics and track designs are always stellar and make you feel like you're right there with the other racers.

For just a small investment, you can set yourself up to race without ever having to leave the house.

How to Clock a Race Car

Saturday, July 17, 2010 10:19 PM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

By Alan Cassidy

Seasoned racers have undergone drills of clocking their race countless of times. This is a good way to experience what it is like on the road and beat the time set out for you. This is also a good training for new racers.

You basically time your race. You can set out goals for yourself and see if you meet them. There are two ways for you to clock you race. The first one is through the stop clock method and the computerized method. I will tell you today how you are going to use both.

For the stop clock method, you need to purchase a reliable sports stop clock. You can customize the stop watch to time laps. This feature is available in most modern stop watches. Just press the start button once the race starts and then click it once again to stop at the end of the lap. Record the results if you want.

You can also use a computerized method. There is a software called Race Driver made by LAN Sharks company. This will record the length of the time the race has elapsed. In addition to that, it can also record the performance of your car's tires including its spring setting which makes it a more comprehensive choice.

This software also has a report wizard you can take advantage. Use this program to count the laps. It can count up to 4,096 laps and stores the data with utmost accuracy. You can download and print out the results of the report. You can compare the results you have measured with other racers. Knowing how well your car performs can let you tweak its settings so you can maximize its fullest potential.

You can also try the Race Drive Pro software from Race Manager. This will allow you to keep track of your racing sessions. This records your data and helps you find its speed and strengths. This is also ideal for other types of cars such as motorcycles so if you are a multi-racer, this will come handy.

It also evaluates how much you qualified for every practice and every race. What makes this ideal is that you can time it with other systems such as Alfano and Intercomp systems. This provides a more comprehensive way of timing your race. This way, you can harness your car's fullest potential. Get yourself any of this type of software and improve your car's speed and performance.

How to Build a Drag-Racing Car


By Alan Cassidy

Drag racing is a kind of car racing competition. The first one that will cross a set of finish lines is the winner. This has been a sport that has first been introduced in the US some time after the second World War but become widely famous since then.

There are specific cars specifically made for drag racing but you can build your own. There are some people that refurbish old sports car models to make them worth entering in this competition. Here is how you can build your very own drag racing type of car:

Step 1: Remember that in this kind of car, you need speed and power and aggressiveness. With the speed that comes with the car, if your car cannot round curves efficiently, it can skid off the track. Make sure that you modify the suspension system of your car. It lessens raising movements when you accelerate on it. If you apply high torque to the car, the car reacts by raising its front end and leaning on one side which will make you lose your stability.

Step 2: Choose the right tires. Since you are competing, you need to choose the most durable tires. You cannot afford pinch flats or puncture flats during this time. Choose those with better grip and stickiness as some roads tend to be a little slippery. Experts prefer tires with racing slicks as this has better surface grip. Also, this will help you accelerate faster and gain momentum.

Step 3: You have to be equipped with the right protective gears. Your car has to be equipped with a fire extinguisher in case the engine goes into flames. A helmet should also be at the ready and also special racing goggles for your protection. Your car should also be equipped with air bags for worse case accidents. It is also a must to have a roll cage installed as this will protect you just in case your car flips and rolls over.

Step 4: One trick to winning the race is to concoct your very own fuel mixture. This is one of the secrets of drag racers. The combine all sorts of gasoline, especially the high octane ones with the bolstering powers of nitrous oxide and many other fuel-type of substances such as methanol. You can ask the help of an expert in the right mixing of these substances as it can be dangerous if you experiment on your own.

It is surprising how few guys actually pay attention when pleasing women during sex. Only few truly notice how important their actions are when it comes to making women orgasm. Under regular circumstances, it would not be likely to happen without effort. It is totally the man's responsibility to give her an outstanding climax and there is no such thing as having too many techniques and skills that drive her wild.

Several women tend to orgasm easier than others; others have more demands. Still, every woman can reach an orgasm as long as the correct way can be found to do so. Any woman can reach orgasm within a mere minute if the proper methods are used and you find out what truly arouses her. By following the tips here, you are guaranteed to make women orgasm as fast as lightning!

How to Make Her Climax - Faster Than An F1 Race Car

Tip One: Observe The Rules of Foreplay. The essence of foreplay must never be underestimated since a lot of women prefer this to actual sex.

Never be in a rush and never be scared to add some dirty talk in, either. Undress her erotically and slowly; be patient. Remember that the entire night is available. Women truly adore verbal sex, too. Whisper how hard you are for her to ensure that she gets very aroused.

Do not stop there, though. Be intimate by telling her how delicious she tastes and she will begin to feel more excited at once.

Tip Two: Find the Proper Spots. You have to find her highly sensitive areas and this is actually not restricted to more obvious places.

Locate her body areas that truly turn her on whenever they are fondled and kissed. Each woman varies when it comes to this. Give her tender touches and do not be scared of more body exploration.

Used Race Car Parts

Thursday, July 8, 2010 10:13 PM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

By Thomas Morva

Used racecar parts are easily available on the net, in flea markets, gas stations, junkyards, and salvage yards. These can be sold on the Internet at free of cost on some sites. Racecar parts are prone to wear and tear and have to be replaced regularly. This means that racecar parts galore in the market. Used racecar parts usually do not come with a warranty because they are already damaged and there is no need for warranties even before they were damaged.

Some of the parts that are damaged in a car race are the rims, trailing arms or springs. Some salvage yards are teeming with racecar parts that have been modified and repaired. These parts are painted and repaired so that they can be put to use in no time. Another advantage of buying used racecar parts is that the shipping time is supposedly very less compared to the shipping time taken for other auto part deliveries.

Used racecar parts are usually priced according to their functions and a totally damaged chassis may not cost as much as a working one. However, the make and the design of the part also dictate the price at which it is sold. There are many books and sites on the net that can guide a person in choosing the appropriate used racing car part.

Many sellers on the Internet try to sell useless racecar parts to unsuspecting customers. These hassles can be avoided if the part is bought directly from a flea market or a salvage yard. Many parts of a racecar become useless after the race and have to be abandoned. These parts are then sold to salvage yards or thrown away in a junkyard depending upon the part itself and its usefulness.

If the buyer or the seller is a novice in this field then it is advisable to hire a mechanic or any professional who knows about racecar parts so that any accidents due to faulty parts can be avoided.

The Race Car Inspired BMW M3

Monday, July 5, 2010 10:10 PM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

By Matthew Keegan

German premier automotive maker BMW continues to maintain its hold as the top selling luxury auto brand in the world. Battling with archrival Mercedes-Benz year in and year out for the highest laurels, BMW continues to constantly tweak its existing line and add new vehicles to its line in a bid to stimulate and strengthen customer interest. One area where BMW has found much of its recent success is with its race car inspired line of vehicles, the M Series. Since 1979 various Motorsports [M} tags have been affixed to vehicles that have been developed by the BMW Motorsports division, including the BMW M3 a car based on BMW's popular 3 Series. Today, BMW engineers are hard at work on developing an all new BMW M3 and, if all of the auto buzz is correct, very few cars will be able to keep up with this 400 hp road commander. Please keep reading for a closer look at the all new, soon to be released, BMW M3.

A pitched battle in autodom continues to gather force pitting German automaker against German automaker. Legendary Mercedes-Benz is taking on heralded BMW for the right to call themselves the top selling luxury brand in the world. For years, the honor belonged exclusively to Mercedes-Benz, but a recent stumble on Mercedes' part coupled with a surge of new products from BMW has placed BMW in first place. Not far behind the two is Lexus, the luxury division of Toyota, but for now the battle remains a fight between these two German automakers.

For luxury car enthusiasts, the BMW-Mercedes rivalry has been a win-win battle as both automakers have been pouring engineering funds into their vehicles. Neither automaker is resting on their past achievements; instead both are pressing forward to add the latest safety features including Mercedes' Night Vision Assist and BMW's impact absorbing bumpers which absorb stronger impacts without damaging the vehicle's main body. Safety is one of the chief concerns for consumers when selecting a particular luxury brand according to all of the leading automotive industry surveys.

For BMW, its latest automotive project has been a closely guarded secret until very recently. Camouflaged spy shots of the all new BMW M3 have been circulating on the internet for some time now but only since June has a pre-production version of a fully unclothed BMW M3 been spotted. It was seen navigating the twisting roads of Southern California according to The Car Connection, the vehicle information and shopping site.

For BMW enthusiasts, news of a BMW M3 pre-production sighting means one thing: BMW will soon announce the date in 2007 when its latest M Series car will be available in dealer showrooms.

Right now, the current BMW M3 is still based on the fourth generation 3 Series which was replaced in 2006. The new BMW M3 will be based on the latest generation body frame and feature some notable improvements over the previous BMW M3 model including:

A larger, more potent V8 engine with an output of 400 horses. Currently, the BMW M3 features an inline six engine with a 333 horsepower output. The new model is expected to rocket from start to 60 in under 5 seconds, topping out at 155 mph.

A six or possibly seven speed manual transmission.

A longer wheelbase for better weight distribution.

Styling cues from the BMW M3 will find its way to the new model from front wing vents to twin exit exhausts along with the ubiquitous M series recognized emblems.

For Mercedes enthusiasts they can point to the soon to be released 2007 C Class, which is the direct competitor for the BMW 3 Series, as evidence that DaimlerChrysler will not let BMW out of its crosshairs anytime soon. A new AMG [motorsport] version of the C Class will follow, ratcheting up what is certain to a pitched battle to be enjoyed by compact luxury car devotees worldwide.

Additional competitors to the BMW M3 include the Cadillac CTS-V, the Audi RS4, and the Lexus IS. Prices have not been set for the new M3, but they can be expected to top out at around $60,000 fully equipped.

Low Cost Race Car Parts For The Home Constructor

Friday, July 2, 2010 10:01 PM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

By Colin Croucher

Australian grassroots motor racing grew up with the home built special. Many examples of these historic cars are still in existence today. Some were built as circuit racers, but many were built for the ever-popular hill climb events held at the various climbs scattered around Australia.

To build a competitive home built racecar today requires many skills. Most importantly the racecar enthusiast constructor will need to have hands on knowledge of metal fabrication skills, i.e., knowing how to weld or braze metal, or machining skills may also be required to operate
lathes and milling machines to produce many of the special one off parts. Just as in the early days of Australian motor racing, today's constructor needs to be extremely resourceful.

If the budget is tight, the home race-car builder can use many avenues to keep the construction costs down to an acceptable level, being multi skilled will allow the home fabricator to construct all manner of things instead of resorting to expensive of the shelf custom made parts.

Many people are unaware that metal casting techniques can be used in the home workshop to cast lightweight aluminium parts. Metal casting is not that difficult to do, and in the last couple of years there has been a worldwide resurgence of home metal casting, i.e., people have been busy setting up a simple home workshop foundry to cast special metal parts that would otherwise be quite expensive if sourced professionally.

Basically all you really need is to build some simple foundry equipment, and learn & practice the basic skills, and before long you will soon be creating some amazing things in metal with your own mini foundry.

A basic understanding of foundry knowledge and self - built equipment is the key to your metal casting success.

Proven foundry methods and techniques are employed by model engineers, home mechanics, car & motorbike restorers etc, to create high quality cast parts that would be otherwise unobtainable. If you have never contemplated casting your own metal parts, then you'd be amazed at the many different things that can be made, especially if you have a well-equipped machine shop. It is possible to make those hard to get parts right in your own home foundry workshop... for a very low cost.

The foundry process is basically carried out by producing a pattern, which is normally made from timber, but patterns can also be made from many other materials, one particular compound that can be used to reproduce broken parts to make a new pattern is RTV silicone.

Once a pattern is produced, it is imbedded into the foundry sand to make a cavity, green sand is a common type of foundry sand, but there are many other types of easy to use sand moulding mediums. After the sand is rammed around the pattern, or the silicate sand has set, the pattern is carefully removed from the sand mould, and the mould is closed and made ready for the pour..

A simple gas fired furnace can be constructed to melt the metal which is then poured into the sand mould to create the casting. Once the casting has cooled, it is removed from the sand mould, cleaned and prepared for the machining & finishing operations. Quite often, the complete operation; from pattern to finished casting can be achieved in just a few days, and that is the great advantage of being in full control of the whole operation, you can manufacture and finish everything in house, while reducing the overall cost to an absolute minimum.

Once you are familiar with the basic foundry techniques, and you understand the techniques involved, you will be able to create many things in metal that you would otherwise not thought possible.

2010 Racing - So You Want to Race Cars - Do You Have What it Takes?

Tuesday, June 29, 2010 4:06 PM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

By Lance Winslow

Every young man growing up wants to race cars when they reach adulthood and you can just imagine most of them would start sooner if they could. Of course, many male adults and even females now too are getting into racing, as it is the ultimate challenge; Racing! The question is are you up for the challenge? Why do I ask? Well, simple, because this challenge comes with risk, grave risk, as it could kill you.

Still many accept that risk and their mechanic crews indeed, accept that responsibility. Racing is dangerous, but that is why the challenge is the ultimate in human competition. Having done a little racing myself and understanding the risk, the rewards and the thrill, I have come to accept the risk as a test of will. Now some may not understand this, but that is okay, for they are welcome to watch as I seize the day!

A racer always knows that every race can be their last, most have been there and experienced a crash. Some recover, others do not and still some are no longer with us, as they succumb. Vince Lombardi once said that the most competitive events attract the most competitive men, they are in it to battle, but ultimately to win. I have been told that racing is an ego sport, that we are in it for ourselves, and that is all about us. Perhaps they are right, yet I have the need for speed and you won't catch me driving a bus! Something Serious to Contemplate in 2008.

Pirate Ships and Race Cars

Saturday, June 26, 2010 4:04 PM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

By Lincoln Brooks

Hi there folks! Once again I am going to be talking about some cool toys that kids love to play. Today's post is about pirate ships and race cars. Ever wonder why kids are so into playing these two kinds of toys? And more definitely these are boy toys. We all know girls prefer to play Barbie dolls, though times may have changed and girls play more sophisticated toys now. But as for boys it would seem that their interests never change. Say a boy likes to play race cars when they are young, but when they are adults they still love to play with cars and this time we are talking about real cars that can be driven around.

As for pirates, I guess there is this sense of adventure that makes the boys want to sail the seas. The thought of being on a ship is a very novel idea as well. In addition, you get to be one of the bad guys instead of the good guys. Who said pirates are all bad though? Captain Jack Sparrow from Pirates and the Caribbean is one example of a good pirate. So being a pirate is not all about being bad. While most boys want cars when they grow up, strangely not many end up being sailors, though I guess if you count those who enlist with the navy they can be termed as seafarers as well.

Now let me go to the gist of my article. I would be recommending two of these such toys, which is the pirate ship and the race car for my readers. So if you have pesky little boys at home and you want them to quieten down and get more engrossed in their own toys, these are the two must have toys for the season.

If you think that your child is into pirates, what about getting the Matchbox Mega Rig Pirates Ship? This cool Matchbox Mega Rig Pirates Ship can actually be disassembled by your child and reconstructed back into different kinds of pirate ships. Then you can also play with the pirate action figures included in the pirate ship set. Best of all, the ship comes with workable cannons and a harpoon so you can blast the enemy to smithereens! Then it also comes with a kraken or giant octopus if you do not know what a kraken is. You just cannot have a pirate adventure without a sea monster.

How to Drive a Race Car

Wednesday, June 23, 2010 4:02 PM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

Driving a race car is no walk in the park. It can be a challenge especially if this is your first time driving this car. It has more speed, more power, more torque, more everything to get you to the finish line in no time.

Why is there a need to master the craft of driving a race car? With its power, you should have the right amount of control in order to maintain stability. This is to avoid skidding off the tracks and rolling over roadblocks.

For starters, here is a quick guide to get you behind that wheel and off to your first race:

Step 1: Start with the basics. When you are rounding the corner or making a sharp turn, do not hit the brakes. You need to gain as much momentum to make an easier turn. Also, when you hit the brakes while you are making a sharp turn, it can lead an imbalance in the car and while cause it to topple over. Gradually stomp on the accelerator.

Step 2: Keep your hands on the steering wheel with the left hand at a 9 o'clock position and the right hand on a 3 o'clock position. Your back should be flat against the seat. Even when you are making those turns, do not slide your hands. Just keep them glued that way unless you have to shift.

Step 3: Once trick that most pros use is not to slam the brakes on emergency situations. Just apply pressure gradually. Sudden breaking can cause the machine to lock and halt. At the speed you are going, suddenly hitting the brakes can cause the car to skid off the track or to crash into another car.

Step 4: Just keep your position steady for as long as possible. Some experts suggest you use the inside lane. Accelerate quickly but watch your back and sides carefully for competitors you might slam into. This distance is much shorter and can help you catch up if you are lagging behind.

Step 5: Formulate some strategies before going out there. Watch races from the pros and find out which of those strategies can you use when you are driving.

Of course, you will need to exercise utmost safety measures to avoid accidents and disasters. Be alert and stay focused. Keep your eye on the finish line but also keep your competitions in sight.

How to Sell a Race Car

Sunday, June 20, 2010 4:00 PM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

When financial constraints start pouring in, racing teams need to weigh down their options. One of the options presented is the need to sell previously used race cars to help provide better finances.

When selling this type of car, you will need to do more than highlight its wonderful and awesome qualities. Take the following tips into consideration so you can better sell this type of car:

Tip 1: Scour online for websites, forums and communities that are interesting in car racing. Sign up for a free membership so you can meet people who are interested in buying what you are selling. Websites such as atmotorsport.com allow users to see used cars and allow interested buyers and sellers to meet online.

Tip 2: Take the best pictures of your car. You might also want to take pictures of your car while it is stationary and while it is in action. Since pictures translate a thousand words, be able to take powerful pictures so you can pique the interest of buyers.

Tip 3: This is the best time to use your racing connections. This community is wide and vast so your team can try to contact other teams and see if they are interested in getting another car. By word of mouth, you can find a prospective buyer.

Tip 4: Do not sell your car if you are still under a contract with a sponsor. If your sponsor will require you to use your car for a few more months, you cannot sell it before then unless you use buyout clauses. This will be another issue but it usually takes time. If you are in a hurry to sell the car, contact your sponsor and see if you can strike another better agreement from them.

Tip 5: Highlight the specifications of your car and have an expert certify it. There are a lot of mechanics who can certify the true condition of your car. Make a report and have a soft copy ready just in case a buyer is interested to see the specifications and the conditions of the car.

Tip 6: Highlight the "freebies". You can include extra wheels, spark plugs and other coveted parts of the car with the whole purchase. This is to create an idea in your prospective buyer that you are generous enough to include the whole package and then some. This will serve as the icing on the cake for many buyers.

How to Buy a Race Car?

Buying a race car will require you to browse over your choices a lot more carefully. Just like what they say, this type of car does not last forever so you want to choose one with a life longer than others.

There are a lot of things to ponder on before buying. First, you have to know which brands of cars dominate the racing scene. You want a car that can get you the bacon. You want a car fast enough to compete and these are the things you should be looking for.

Tip 1: For you to choose better, you can browse over some websites that shows the updates on new cars and the models that are currently out in the market. You can look at websites like AutoRacingTrader.com or the like.

What is great about this is that you can find sellers not just from your country but from dealers and sellers from other countries as well so you have more choices. Choose the ones that will fit well to your racing preferences. Scrutinize the features and the power of the car and find out if it can be easily customized to your needs.

Tip 2: Once you have chosen a car, get your funds ready. It is advisable that you be a part of a racing team so you can take advantage of various loan offers. These can help you make a better and less expensive deal. Your team may also have a few sponsors who can help you out with your funds. You can offer them advertising space instead so you can cut down on your financial expenses.

Tip 3: Test drive the car first before sealing your purchase. Experience the general feel of being on the wheel. You can ask for a demo drive from the dealer and examine the exterior of the car. Check the engine and the suspension system along and also find out if it has been incorporated and installed with many safety features such as a roll cage.

Tip 4: You should also ask for extra parts such as wheels, car wax and other accessories you will surely need. If you are buying your car second hand, ask for the old spark plugs and wheels of the previous owners. They aren't likely to use this if they have a new car already. These few extra things can cut down on your expenses significantly.

Race Cars And The Parts They May Need

When you start your racing career, you may not think a whole lot about the auto parts that are in your race car. You might want to though.

Getting your car race ready is not as simple as starting it up and going down the road. You have to have the right parts and know where you are going to put them on the car. This is the big question though, how you going to race and what are you going to have as your auto parts.

You can get your racing parts from many different places, but the most common one is probably going to be from the Internet. This is because you are able to get many different auto parts from many different places and are able to have them shipped right to you. This can help you because you don't have to go looking for your auto parts and they are right at your door.

You can try to get some of these auto parts from your local auto parts store as well, but these are not normally for racing purposes and you may have to have them ordered anyway. If you are able to order these parts, you could wait a long time and may have to pay more for them. The good thing is that you will not have to worry about the cost of shipping the auto parts to the store and will be able to pick it up there once it arrives.

Once you get the auto parts, you can take some time and get them installed in your car so that it runs good. This might be the thing that helps you to win the race that you are entered in.

Take some time and find the auto parts that you can use for your racing needs. Some of these will be harder to find then others, but you might be glad that you waited to find them like you did. You are the one that will race your car and you want it to be the fastest that it can be, but you want to make sure that you are safe in it too. This is a fine line that most racers flirt with on a daily basis. You will probably do the same and may even cross that line a time or two if you're not careful.

IRL To Use 100% Ethanol Powered Race Cars In 2010

Tuesday, June 8, 2010 3:52 PM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

By Frederick Musser

The IRL - Indy Racing League (IndyCar Series), which has been accepted for its technical advancements in automobile racing, is now the motorsport racing leader in renewable alternative fuel produced in America. All of the 2007 field of Indy Race Cars will be fuel by 100% Ethanol.

This is quite an achievement considering there is such a debate about whether or not ethanol is a viable alternative fuel source. Think about this, if ethanol can power a 600+ horsepower racecar to speeds over 200+ mph with efficiency - certainly it can power our everyday old "grocery getter" without problem.

Alcohol powered race cars are not that new to the IRL after all in 1927 at the third Indianapolis 500 a racecar driven by Leon Duray was powered by grain (ethyl) alcohol.

This new switch to 100% ethanol powered Indy Race Cars for 2007 will not only benefit our environment by burning cleaner thus, providing less emissions, studies have shown that it will cost the average Indy Race Team about $65,000 less for the cost of fuel compared with what they were paying for foreign produced methanol. Good for the environment and cost effective - what a concept!

The IRL has been testing the use of 100% ethanol powered racecars for a number of years with great results.

IRL president Brian Barnhart said: . . . "We knew it wasn't going to happen overnight and we wanted to explore what to do to make it happen." "There never has been a consideration of what we'd save. It's been about taking the initiative to introduce a fuel that improves the domestic economy and reduces our reliance on foreign fuel."

Ethanol industry officials are hoping that fueling the IRL IndyCar Series will help spread the word about the benefits of ethanol as an alternative fuel source, not only in high-dollar, high horsepower IRL Indy cars, but also in everyday sedans, truck, minivans and SUVs.

I hope it helps to spread the word as well. America needs to stop our addiction to oil and if an auto racing sanctioning body like the IRL can help spread the word, I say Thank You!

An Electric Race Car Track Or a Remote Control Airplane For a Unique Christmas Gift

Thursday, May 27, 2010 7:52 AM Posted by Andy Subandono 0 comments

By Derek Wortman

One Christmas, when I was about ten, I wanted an Electric Race Car Track. It was that one gift that was wanted but not really expected. The sears wishbook got wore thin from looking at the different shapes and sizes of the Electric Race Car Tracks. My brother and I got our race track that Christmas and I still remember the excitement of Christmas morning when we found our track all set up and ready to go on the other side of the living room.

If your thinking about a race track for you children this Christmas, there are a few things to consider before making that purchase. First, how much do you want to spend? Sets will range from $50-$500 depending on how many cars can run on the track, how many feet of track and track design, like 360's and super speed banks.

I have found better quality in the more expensive race tracks. You need tough durable cars as the first 3,4 times you race, you will definitely crash and go flying off the track, laughing all the way.

Second, once you have your Electric Race Car Track all set up, you will not want to take it all apart and put it together again very often. So, keep in mind how much room you have to leave your race track permanent for a while.

Third, how many cars do you want to race at the same time. I personally like the four car tracks. Great for mom and dad racing with the kids or when they have friends over for the night, no one has to wait for a turn if you have a 4 car track.

Now if your looking for a super Unique Christmas Gift then wait until you see the look on his face when he unwraps an Airplane, Radio Controlled Airplane. Unique Christmas Gift or not if you live in a little community like Mount Delite New Brunswick, you will not be flying no Radio Controlled Airplane at Christmas time because of the weather. Some where like Tennessee at Christmas time you could play with you new toy. So consider your location when thinking about a Radio Controlled Airplane as a Unique Christmas Gift.

Either choice, an Electric Race Car Track or a Radio Controlled Airplane, will get a big smile and memories that will last a lifetime.

Paint Your Race Car - Spray paint your box a bright color - red, blue, green, yellow, or orange.

Attach "Suspenders" - Using the staple gun, staple heavy ribbon from end to end on either side of the box as "suspenders" to allow kids to wear their cars.

Add Wheels - Choose four plastic plates to make two wheels on either side of the box. Use a contrasting color to the color of the race car box itself. Fasten the plates with brads so the wheels will turn. Add another plate on top of the box to make a functioning steering wheel.

Add Headlights and Tail Lights - Cut two circles of yellow construction paper and glue to the front of the car for headlights. Cut two smaller circles of red construction paper and glue to the rear end of the car for tail lights.

Make an Exhaust Pipe - Make an exhaust pipe from a toilet paper tube with crepe paper streamers. Attach the tube to the car by making a series of cuts around one end of the tube, flaring it out against the back of the car, and securing with masking tape.
