By Sherry Gross


People of the new generation just seems to love everything that comes on full speed. They live fast paced lives, use gadgets and appliances that make any activity easier and faster, travel using the fastest modes of transportation, and even eat fast foods. Speed is the operative word of the modern times, and so it is not really surprising to find out that more and more people are falling in love with quarter midgets racing.

Racing has its roots to many, many years ago. For quite a while people saw it as a way to vent out their competitive streak and their inherent thirst for winning. There is nothing more elating than the feeling of winning and beating everyone else, and this is mainly one of the many reasons why people are so drawn into this particular sport.

Today, racers are by far more safe than their earliest predecessors. The mechanics of the sport, along with its primary objective, remains the same after thousands of years. From then until now, racing has remained to be a speed game wherein a racer must conquer the clock or best out all the other racers. It is a game where everything seems to be a blur and both competitors and spectators alike all experience that adrenaline rush that leaves you pumping and very much awake.

Cars are also very popular racing mediums. Auto races, as they came to be known, is typically composed of laps or levels. A lap is a complete turn around the track. A race typically has several of these, depending on the skill level of the participating competitors.

Races also come in several forms and can have varying elements that contrast them starkly from one another. For example, there are races that employ the need for an added element which is the horse. These can gradually turn into some sort of a gambling activity, because most of the time people place monetary bets on their favorite equine.

Since the F1 cars drive along the European circuit, sprint cars fulfill the need for speed of the average American. They may not really look like the flashy ones that are often seen in the formula one circuits, they are fashioned after its modern design. With the shot to fame of this particular sport, the racers have also been dragged into the spotlight. Today, it is no secret that a participant in this kind of extreme sport can bring home millions. Fame and a lavish lifestyle is actually just an added bonus.

Most people think that it is easy for one to enter the race world, that one only needs to know how to drive. But, the reality is that those who start young have all the advantages. If you decide to start on in later life, your chances are pretty slim to none.

If you are worried that this sport is not exactly the safest for your child, there is absolutely no reason to be. The cars run around a wide track that is just about one fifth in length as compared to the tracks adults often drive in. The unique design of the car also serves as an added safety feature.

The competitions are often held in tracks that are only a fifth of the standard length. They also drive special cars that are only one fourth than those used by the experts. The earlier one starts, the more he stands a chance.
