Thank you for these videos! A couple years ago I thought wingless sprints were faster because the car had to fight less air but I learned the wing holds the car down on the track harder for more grip so it’s actually faster with a wing. I also didn’t know they were an extra safety feature by making the car not roll as much, no wonder the wingless usac cars flip multiple times out of the track.
Good catch on the safety advantage the wing brings to the car. Not sure how long you have been a fan, but I grew with the term "snap roll" to describe the way a non-wing car will flip. Those snap rolls are vicious and have hurt and killed alot of drivers especially in the days before the roll cage. The wing has added years to the careers of countless drivers like Kinser, Swindell, Haudenschild and many others. As the video explains, the safety not only comes from slowing down the roll rate the wing also dissipates energy as it crushes during the flip. I've been a fan of open wheel dirt cars since the late 1950's and after all these years, there is still no better racing to me. Enjoy and here's to some dirt at the bottom of your beer cup.
Does woo regulate how the wing is oriented on the car side to side and along the front to back axis? Seems like there would be an advantage to moving the wings over to the left some and also to rotate the front of the wing to the left alittle so that the sideboards catch more air. But it looks like nobody does this. Is that because they are not allowed to do it, or is it just not helpful?
They Blaney brothers out of Ohio have the left side of the body of the wing slightly higher the the right and also the left side of the wing body slightly forward of the right.
Excellent. I have been a hard core fan since 1976 and I learned some things. Thank you.
Keep teaching us Nate awesome videos 👍🙂
Great stuff. Nate does a great job articulating the wing and adjustments. Keep it up.
I love these videos! I enjoy learning everything about the dirt cars.
Greatest form of racing on the planet 🌎
Very Cool! 👍 torsion bars would be cool to learn about
That was an excellent lesson. Thanks !
Awesome..!
I learned something ..!

Great reply busher69, am new to sprint cars , love hearing stories from long time fans
Can never get enough tech info. Thanks Nate!🏳️🏁🇺🇸
Awesome video, guys! And big thanks to Nate!
Wheel spacing ...drivers acesss to shock adjustment...torsion bar adjustment...stagger...the lust goes on....great video...I learned a lot ty
Great job!
Wow, I knew those wings were capable of moving during the race, but I didn't know they moved THAT much. Really cool!
That was really very helpful!
Love this!
Great explanation! Thanks Nate
Hey Nate great video how about suspensions and what goes into setting the car up for feature
Muito bem pensado cada detalhe destes carros! Sensacional!!!
Great vid!
Excellent video. Thanks. 🇺🇸🍀🇺🇸
Gears and stagger!
Fantastic presentation. Very well explained.
Good video. More of this type of content would be great.
Teach us the basics on wheel spacers and how they affect the handling.
Thanks,
Billy Dietrich you tube channel has videos on that. Maybe T Mez TV as well
Cool. How far is the travel on the top wing?
Cool video. Thanks.
Great video, very interesting , I'd like to know about weight distribution and scales etc. Keep up the great work.
Thanks I learned something ❤
Great video, cut this up and throw it on your other social media!
Thank you
Do you set up the car with weight scales under the tires?

👍
Next time can you explain about brake set ,e.g some cars run two brake capliper's on the rear diff
Already knew everything he explained
forgot to say top wing can`t be dished like the front wing
!!!
