yeah i was thining that as well cause its not like it need room.

i think its cause they are used on oval shaped tracks, so to get better grip they put the engine on the inside to put weight over those tires.

I agree with you, Tom. I was thinking the same thing, but I stop myself on that idea : do they never turn reverse ?

They only race on ovals, and are allowed i 'think' up to 69% of the weight on the left side.

Small blocks you can run up to a 412, and big blocks a 481. And again, they are producing 900-1000hp.

Here's a video of them at my local track - track is a 5/8's mile, and they are reaching speeds almost 170 mph.

Can't notice much, even though I put alot of time into it.

That's a really nice project ! The model looks good, I wonder how it could have turned in high poly, because there is so many details to think of.

Keep us updated, I really want to see it textured.

The level of details amazes me. Keep us updated !

Right now it is about 9500 polys...
