How a NASCAR Cup Series Race Car Works

When did they switch the bodies to composites? Seriously last time i saw they still made them out of metal. On the new cars it wouldnt surprise me if they are made from carbon and kevlar. I just havent herd of that untill now

Do GT cars next Please

I'm always fascinated by how much gasoline they can get in the car in a 20 sec pit stop

Who knew driving in circles could be so complicated?

ah yes, the air conditioning system is very human indeed

Good

Fantastic content and presentation. Great research. 😊

Technology and safety besides I'm disappointed the racecars are not being primarily developed by the manufactures. Other than the decals and some minor front end differences these cars have virtually nothing in common with the vehicles they represent. The manufactures have little to do with engine development as well. NASCAR has developed there own racecar thus creating a completely different series of racing . I not debating if its good or bad I'm just being realistic. NASCAR needs to stop using the phrase Stockcar racing it just no longer exist and why I'm not the fan I was once.

why dont they have a turbo? And lets say smaller tank

Why no motor info? Have read that the only required "stock" part is the lower block, which is heavily modified to accommodate pushrods. In the finished motor, very little is left of the Ford, Toyota, Chevy, etc. the car is supposed to represent. No genuine brand competition.

please do a video about the Porsche gt 3 rs

Damn your vids are cool!...watched many I just happened to comment (and subscribe) after this one

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Nascar uses a 5-lugnut design, not a centerlock nut for wheel retention.

Why don't they apply some of good feature to normal daily car? Such as suspension system, this will help a lot on safety when on public road. The quantity of production will reduce cost in total, create and use only in racetrack are just for viewing pleasure 😅😅😅

Another masterpiece detailed video!! Both the animation and the music are stunning.. Another masterpiece detailed video!! Both the animation and the music are stunning..

The diffuser is not raised in order to reduce turbulence, it is raised because it increases the volume under the car thereby lowering the air pressure. The diffuser strakes are not to comb through the air to keep it clean, they are there to stop ambient pressure air from the sides of the car from mixing with the low pressure air in the diffuser.

Everyone says NASCAR died when Dale passed away, nah. It died when restrictor plates went on.

I miss the generation 4 cars.

Please don't tell me you did this with blender??? Is it blender???

Incredible breakdown, good work!

miles per galon? but at how many elbows per blink bunch? pounds? why not big rock weights? thumb down

just found out that the lights are just stickers, why even do that ?!

All that tech just for racing in loops

First and foremost, thank you for not calling it “a nascar”

It's amazing seeing how many other channels reference this video, particularly with the Nascar entry into LeMans. As well as your F1 video.

Non Fan on cooling system let's movie forward 😮. The beast it's fast enough to lug air from atmosphere

Im pretty sure the exaust goes into boom tubes to create the iconic sound

VEREY INTRESTING AND A GOOD PRESENTATION. REALLY INJOYED.

So very cool!

STOCK car...lol

Better handling cars with a stupid sounding flat, crank low horsepower makes terrible racing it all comes down to who NASCAR decides they want to allow to cheat through the electronics to determine winner

You do a great job with explanations, However the next gen car breaks a lots of long time Nascar guidelines set by Bill France Sr and Jr and will be blamed for the downfall of Nascar . Since this car NASCAR is down 15% in TV ratings and track attendance is down even more, so much so they have moved cameras to hide empty seats. They even paint seats in colors to make it look like their are fans in empty seats. Gone Is the high RPM high HP motors gone is the race gas smell with the rotten egg smell of green gas. And the car sounds flat like a spark plug wire is off. Replacing horse power with better handling cars is the worst idea one could ever imagine.

Excellent job. Very well done.

Another thing to note. The gas pedals usually have a bar that sits on top of the foot in the event that the throttle pedals gets stuck, so the driver can manually pull the pedal back with their foot.

Absolutely fascinating and well explained. Well done with this.

Camry Front End,look like a "Tiger" 😮

Nobody ever counts the reverse gear. So no its not a 6 speed. It's a 5 speed. Your never doing any real fast "speed" in reverse anyway.

Always had respect for the bravery and specialization required to drive a nascar but for years ive been naive of how much the cars have kept up with the times. No wonder one of these chassis can be set up to be competitive at Le Mans

Hi Jack,
I am Mechanical Product Design Engineer. I have seen all Animagraffs video. I have request to you Can you make FORD MUSTANG related video i.e How its work..

I just wish someone would do a video explaining Nascar in general. Tell people about the strategy things like a at the right time pitt stop that could get you better track position or chassis adjustments and how they affect handling. How sun or cloud cover affect the handling of the car. Things like this, because all you hear from Europe is how boring just going in circles is. Maybe if they had more info Nascar would get more respect. One thing I forgot is Tracks like Daytona maybe explain how the draft works on those tracks. Thankyou There is a video of a guy,I believe he is from Italy who goes to his first Nascar race and I think it is I went to a Nascar race and was blown away.

please make a video on nitrous

I sat here and watched the entire video. Thank you for creating this. I was always curious about NASCAR cars and the modifications they all required. I will share this with my Dad since he's the reason why I got into cars, racing in the first place.

Absolutely excellent visuals.

Why are speedometers not allowed to be displayed per NASCAR rules?

What a great video!

As a hardcore NASCAR fan I have to say, this was incredible. Great job. I will show people this video when they ask me about NASCAR race cars
