National Sports Sedans

March 1, 2019 By ARDC Leave a Comment

National Sports Sedans

THE NATIONAL SPORTS SEDAN SERIES is arguably the most dynamic and exciting motor racing category in the country. The noise and the serious horsepower from the mid mounted engines of these ‘winged and wild’ racers is awe inspiring. Built and raced by a dedicated group of devotees chasing the ultimate in power to weight performance, they share a unique place in Australian motor racing heritage.

Sports sedans are the most modified full bodied cars in Australian motor sport. Typically they commence build using a steel tube ”space frame” chassis, add mechanical components, composite body panels which can resemble the family sedan or transform a sports saloon into something more exotic with the addition of wheel arch flares to accommodate the wide slick rubber, plus front spoilers and a large rear wing to generate downforce.

The most successful cars in recent years have sourced power from a 700+ horsepower 6000cc V8 engines and transmit that power through a 5 or 6 speed transaxle rear end. The result is the fastest cars with a roof, and in many instances these cars are knocking on the door of recording fastest outright track laps at circuits nationwide!

Superkarts

March 1, 2019 By ARDC 1 Comment

Superkarting is the pinnacle of karting, providing exciting racing at the world’s greatest car racing circuits. At speeds of up to 260km/h drivers can experience G-forces of over 3.5G thanks to lightweight, purpose-built superkart chassis with aerodynamic bodywork and engines that put out over 100bhp at the wheels. It has been said by ex-Formula 1 race winner David Coulthard that “the men and women who drive superkarts are superheroes!”. Certainly the thrill of driving these machines matches the intensity of the racing spectacle provided!

Superkarts Australia caters for three separate categories of superkart. The fastest are the 250 International superkarts, which run twin cylinder 250cc 2-stroke engines. These superkarts are generally easy to spot out front and run with a yellow and black number plate.

The next category is the 250 National class, which run a single cylinder 250cc engine. They run a different white and black number plate.

The final category is the 125 National class, which run a single cylinder 125cc engine. These run with red and white number plates. You will see a lot of slipstreaming action in this class as they push each other toward the finish line!
