Sucks there's no good tracks near me. I'm sure there's some kind of underground dirt racing somewhere here. I don't get how there is like no car culture in Jax.

I live near a 5/8 mile dirt track with hundreds of cars competing in all types of classes...feels pretty good man.

Track is making bank, too. It's like NASCAR for the locals, but an even bigger deal because they know all the drivers and all the sponsors on the cars are local businesses they pass by every day. That's why I love dirt track. Not only are the cars awesome but the atmosphere is truly remarkable. It's a bunch of local people getting together doing what they love representing their towns. No wonder it's so popular.

It's kinda boring to me because the guy with the most money and sponsors always wins except for the few times he gets cocky and fucks up. But still it's always the same cars up front.

Mostly. It depends on each individual track and their rulebooks, really. All the cars are built ground-up from aftermarket OEM parts, so there will be differences between each type of car but overall engine rules are similar. Monte Carlos and Camaros are the two most popular.

Not so much with street stocks since it's pretty cheap and there are pretty strict rules on engine mods. That happens more with higher-level classes like modifieds and late models.

At a few tracks you can actually pay a guy to buy his engine off of him for like $100 and you give him your engine. This prevents people from dumping tons of money into an engine. Of course, you could always refuse but that means you give up your position. You can also "protest" (for another sum of money), which means that the staff will check the engine to make sure they weren't cheating. Personally, I don't like this system and most people don't so most tracks don't use it. Instead, they just use a strict rulebook designed to keep cars competitive and costs low. As they should.
