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:
“The reason American cars don’t sell anymore is that they have forgotten how to design the American Dream. What does it matter if you buy a car today or six months from now, because cars are not beautiful. That’s why the American auto industry is in trouble: no design, no desire.”
—Karl Lagerfeld (b. 1938)
