Clubs--Motor Racing

If you are looking for information on motor racing clubs, search under this Yellow Pages® heading. A motor racing club is a group of individuals who gather together for purposes relating to the sport of motor racing. Motor racing could refer to go kart racing, motor boat racing, etc. The most common use of the term, however, is for racing cars, or motor cars. These are cars that are built to withstand very high speeds and are raced on a competitive level.

Racing cars clubs appeal to individuals who are either drivers, fans, or simply interested in the sport. Clubs might consist of a ‘fan club’, which can offer discounts, newsletters, etc. Conversely, driver clubs are organisations that allow the drivers to meet. This could be a group of individuals who race against one another, share ideas and tips, etc. Racing car clubs encourage people of similar interests to interact with one another, allowing them to exchange information, etc.

Racing cars come in several forms such as drag car racing, Formula 1, etc.  Each type of car usually has its advantages and disadvantages. For example, a drag racing car is designed to withstand extremely high speeds but not designed to make turns. Drag races are usually very short distances, typically around ¼ miles where speed is of importance. Racers compete on a straight and level track, and engage parachutes to slow them down at the end of the track.
