ovalrace körs inte på regn. Jag tror inte att dom kör på regn på vanliga banor heller...men lite osäker. _________________ Håkan Carlsson 070-57 323 57 Bil: BMW e36R TimeAttack https://rejsa.nu/forum/viewtopic.php?t=49630&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=462 |

har för mig att iaf dom senaste decenierna så har det körts med 43 bilar på startlinjen oavsett bana..... varför det är just 43 har jag ingen aning om men det finns säkert någon anledning.... |

det var ju faktiskt inte så svårt att få reda på med lite google-hjälp...... kopierar in svaret nedan från en Q&A sida Question...Why do 43 cars start a NASCAR race? What is the significance of 43? Mike Answer...NASCAR started playing with the size of the fields five or six years ago. Different tracks used to start different amounts of cars in each race depending mainly on how many pit stalls the track had available to use. NASCAR wanted to standardize the size of the fields and after some trial and error, settled on a field consisting of 36 qualifiers with six provisionals that could be used by the regular drivers. That's a total of 42 cars. The story about the odd car, the 43rd starter, began about twelve years ago when Richard Petty was having trouble making the starting lineup. NASCAR created a Champions Provisional to help get Petty into the field. In fact it could be used to help any present or ex-champion but just recently was used for other drivers, if a Champions Provisional wasn't used. It goes to the car owner with the highest points that didn't qualify on speed. NASCAR was happy with the standardization and stuck with that number even though some drivers had to share pit stalls at some tracks before they were brought up to the present standards. They could run more at some tracks and they probably should run fewer cars at others, but it's a standard 43 cars now and I don't see that ever changing. |

Re:
Som en helt värdelös footnote, så var jag där idag. Hos Hendrick Motorsports utanför Charlotte alltså. ![]() ![]() Budweiser lär få lite problem med att byta ut alla sina #8-reklamskyltar. De finns på varenda krog här i trakten... |

Re:
Nej, man kör aldrig på regn i NASCAR, men man gjorde ett test den 12e augusti 1995 på Watkins Glen med regndäck (enda gången man har kört NASCAR bilar med regndäck, vad jag känner till i alla fall). Citerat från ett Maxx NASCAR Race Card (samlarkort): During a rain delay in the morning practice session of the Bud at the Glen, Mark Martin and Dale Earnhardt took some laps with experimental rain tires provided by NASCAR tire supplier Goodyear. During the test, Earnhardt ran 6 laps and Martin ran 10 with the rain tires. Earnhardt's quickest lap with the tires was 1 minute and 32.75 seconds, approximately 18 seconds slower than his qualifying lap. Martin's fastest lap was 1 minute and 32.47 seconds, about 19 seconds slower than his pole winning time the day before. Although NASCAR doesn't, other divisions of racing use rain tires including Indy Car, Formula one, and SCCA Trans-Am. Bild: ![]() _________________ Erik Gelotte, Golf II Grp. H-bygge igång! |
