NASCAR is famous for speed - and that speed wouldn't be possible if not for the banked turns of NASCAR’s tracks. Banked turns, the parts of the track where the road slopes inward, keep NASCAR drivers safe and driving at faster, more exhilarating speeds. Here’s how NASCAR’s banked turns work.

How is this not on science insider?

@Kinamod 2 года назад

because it's only half right. They skipped that centruFUGAL force also adds to the equal and opposite reaction from the track, meaning the cars can get more than one G through the track to use on additional friction to turn. Also, a banked track literally straightens out the curve. So you don't have to turn the wheels as much to make the same amount of change in direction.

@NazriB 2 месяца назад

Lies again? Game Design Learn Faster

@fj7509 5 лет назад

I feel like the explanation at 3:30 was quite vague. The force of the car due to gravity is going straight down, however, the banked curve directs part of the force to the direction of the turn. If you were somehow driving on a perfectly vertical wall, you wouldn't need to worry about turning considering all the stress is being taken off the wheels.

@renbutt8142 5 лет назад

Well it involves physics that require more explanation than most viewers would care to learn.

@fj7509 5 лет назад

@@renbutt8142 Yeah that's true but an intro to physics should be enough. Where you understand vectors and force of gravity and weight. Another way to think of it is as since the tires are being pushed outwards as you turn in due to friction, that direction is up the slope. This requires greater force thus supplying greater traction since the force needed to overcome this new friction is being angled by the ramp.

Justin Delacerda as far as I’m concerned, they haven’t used the combined circuit (regular+oval) since 1961, when Wolfgang Von Tripps and other spectators died in a crash in the Italian GP that gave his teammate Phil Hill a bittersweet maiden driver’s championship title (he’s the only American-born driver to achieve such a feat).

@Joopyter724 4 года назад

Short version when you turn in a car you get pushed outwards So put a bank and it pushes you into the bank So you get more grip Thats why it can go faster on a banked corner than a flat one

Well doesn’t nascar also do road course races? I might not have all the tracks but here’s a few Trucks: Canadian Tire Motorsports Park Xfinity: -Watkins Glen -Roval -Road America -Mid Ohio Cup -Roval -Sonoma -Watkins Glen Therefore, nascar doesn’t always go to the left. Each series heads to 6 different types of road courses, so it’s not always ovals. Also how about INDYCAR. Are we really not gonna mention how many oval races they do as well or no?

@Valchee9192631770 5 лет назад

Reminds me of Cartman when he was using Vagisil

@yo_its_devo 3 года назад

Eh I feel like they missed half of the explanation. When turning on a bank the car is "pushed" into the bank with more force (think about a turn in a roller coaster when you're pushed down into your seat). That extra force gives the tires a lot more grip.

And why Texas should bring it’s bankings back up again

@thejman3489 3 года назад

When Texas was being built it was an exact copy of Charlotte. In fact most of the tracks being built at the time were like this because they wanted to bring nascar to the entire country and they saw how great the races were at Charlotte. Plus they could run Indy cars at mile and a half tracks. Lots of tracks, mostly short tracks, got pushed off the schedule for, well Charlotte clones. The rework at Texas gives it some unique qualities and almost guarantees it a date for a long time to come.

@potatosordfighter666 2 года назад

Your explanation is missing another important factor of banks. The steeper the bank gradient, the straighter you actually go through the corner, and the less you have to turn. If a turn went to a full 90 degree bank, you would be driving in a straight line on a wall.
