The cars have very tight specifications to ensure cars are quite similar with each other. All cars utilize the same parts, engine and tires. The only adjustable areas on the cars are: Camber angle, Caster angle, Ride Height, Tire Pressure, Spring Rates, Wheelbase, and Gearing. All of these adjustments are also strictly regulated in the INEX rule book. The overall similarity in the cars, ensures good racing, at a low cost. It also puts the race in the hands of the driver and the setup of the race car, instead of being about who can spend the most money.

Famous quotes containing the word car:

    Fifty years from now, it will not matter what kind of car you drove, what kind of house you lived in, how much you had in your bank account, or what your clothes looked like, But the world may be a little better because you were important in the life of a child.
    —Anonymous. Quoted in The Winning Family, by Louise Hart, ch. 1 (1987)
