How fast do sprint cars go?

I’m a huge fan of sprint car racing. In my humble opinion, it’s so much more satisfying to watch than NASCAR. What’s the top speed of a sprint car?

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
Hey, glad you’ve found a hobby you love. Sprint cars can reach nearly 160 miles per hour—pretty fast for their size!
Here’s more on your favorite motorsport:
  • Sprint car racing is the racing of high-powered small cars around a dirt track.
  • Sprint car racing is very popular in the US, New Zealand, Australia, and South Africa.
  • Most sprint cars boast 900-hp and weigh only 1,400 pounds—including the driver!
There ya have it. While they’re not as fast as
F1 cars
, these open-wheel little racers sure can fly!
But enough about sprint cars, let’s talk about your car. Is it protected with the right
car insurance
 policy?
