both inside and outside, a NASCAR car is an amazing machine. In detail, these are the most outstanding characteristics.
The cockpit of a race car in NASCAR, is characterized by a complex system of switches, indicators and other instruments that the pilot uses to monitor every aspect of the behavior of the car.
seats are tailored to keep the driver comfortable, with a range of safety innovations designed in each cabin. Here we list the parts one by one.
1 MAIN BOARD: Contains switches for starter, ignition and cooling fans. TACHOMETER 2: Monitors the revolutions per minute (RPMs) of engine, helps the driver to select and monitor changes engine power.
3 MOTOR PANEL INDICATORS: Monitors the engine oil pressure, water temperature, oil temperature, voltage and fuel pressure. AUXILIARY SWITCHES
4: They can serve several purposes, including backup power on the system of ignition, the fans or the cooling system of the helmet.
5 MASTER SWITCH (MASTER SWITCH): Turn off the electrical system in case of emergency.
6 IGNITION SWITCH OFF: Turn off the engine in an emergency.
7 RADIO BUTTON: Controls communication with the pits and race spotter.
8 SHIFTER: Controls the four-speed manual transmission.
9 SEAT SAFETY: Provides extra support and protection for the head, shoulders, ribs and lower extremities.
10 LIMIT FOR HEAD AND NECK MOVEMENT: NASCAR mandates the use of a system that limits the movement of head and neck to prevent injury during an incident.
WINDOW NETWORK 11: Safety device located on the driver's side window that helps keep the head and arms inside the car during an incident. MIRROR
12
13 VENT FRESH AIR: Send the air outside the cabin.
14 MAIN MIRROR FIRE EXTINGUISHER
15: Automatically activated in case of fire.
16 SEAT BELT HARNESS: Keep the pilot strapped securely into his seat in the event of an incident. 17
EXTINGUISHER SWITCH: Download chemical fire in the cabin on fire. 18 NOZZLE
discharge of the extinguisher: Directs the fire suppressant in case of fire.
19 HOOK HELMET: Provides a place for the pilot to keep your helmet when outside the car.
20 IGNITION SYSTEM: Located on the dashboard on the passenger side, this box is programmed to help the engine achieve the most precise timing possible for maximum power.
The race car that competes with the Colombian driver Juan Pablo Montoya in NASCAR requires a great effort to build and prepare, with highly qualified engineers and technicians specializing in engines, chassis and shock absorbers.
All that effort is reflected in the result is a car more than 800 horsepower, capable of speeds of 200 miles per hour (321.8 km / h). Despite all this power, the NASCAR race car is also designed with a number of safety innovations to help protect the driver in case of an accident.
Having the right setting, the car can achieve speeds without any problem. This set-up consists of a wide range of factors, such as shock absorbers and springs, gears, chassis weight distribution and more. All these factors have to be managed, adjusted and tuned to deliver the car to run under optimal conditions.
When an overhaul is needed, the car can reach top speed from the start, allows the pilot complete control. When the tuning is not precise, the car is not as fast and more difficult to control, which means that the lap times are slower.
1 SPLITTER FRONT Allows teams to tune the downforce Pilot front and tracks in particular. 2 AIR INTAKE BRAKE: Send the external air to the brake discs and rotors for additional cooling.
3 RADIATOR AIR INTAKE: Send the external air to the radiator to cool engine fluids.
4 BODY PANELS (dashboard): Made of metal sheet cold united 24/0.0247 inch gauge (minimum). 5 BOLTS
CHEST: Four pins quick release metal wire cables that keep the hood closed.
6 CAVITY AIR INDUCTION: room air cleaner that connects the air intake at the base of the windshield to the carburetor.
7 POST JACK: Area where the manager puts the cat jack to lift the car during pit stops.
8 CAGE: A tubular steel cage inside the car that protects the driver during impacts and rollovers.
9 WINDSHIELD INSURANCE: Allows easily remove the windshield if a driver needs to be taken from the car.
10 DOUBLE FRAME RAIL ENERGY ABSORBING: A combination of steel plate and energy absorbing materials installed between the bars of the cage door and the door panels that attenuate energy absorbing an impact.
WINDOW NETWORK 11: Safety device located on the driver's side window that keeps the pilot's head and arms inside the car during an incident.
12 TV CAMERA: Allows NASCAR fans to watch the races from a driver's perspective.
STRIP OF SHEET 13: Two aluminum strips half an inch high, which run along the roof to help prevent the car flipping side when you go for a spin or accident.
14 OUTPUT AC: Also known as "hatch the sheet", allows pilots to leave the car in case of an emergency.
15 SPOILERS OF SHEET: Help prevent the car is raised when going sideways or backwards during a spin or accident.
COOLING DUCTS
16: Help make the hot air from the cabin.
17 GOODYEAR EAGLE RACING TIRES: no pattern radial tires designed specifically for running.
adjustment bolt 18: Area in which the mechanics use a wrench to adjust the car's handling by altering the pressure of the rear wing.
19 ALA ADJUSTABLE BACK: Send flow of air over the rear of the car, providing better balance and control in traffic.
20 FUEL CELL WITH SAFETY: 17.75 gallons houses Sunoco Race fuel bladder in a protective, puncture-resistant.
