- 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.

The One Design Change That Made NASCAR Races Faster
Lightning McQueen is the greatest race car of all time
r/whooosh
@‘syth_Shadowz シ HEY NERD! you dont understand the joke, didn't you
No Eric Cartman is the best NASCAR driver of all time.
No Kobe bryant is the greatest race car of all time
Are you dead?
If you ever see a track you'll be amazed at how steep it really is 😮👍
Try riding on it, scary as all hell.
Chris Invests - Personal Finance Videos yeas i was amazed it was 31 degrees steep.
I went to daytona beach to go see it and it looked steeper than how it looked in tv
I haven’t been to Daytona or talladega but I know it’s incredibly banked and I bet people will be supine day how steep it is
and banking at indy is not that steep compared to other ovals (9°) nascar cant take it full throttle unlike daytona or talladega (33°) remodeled last turn of zandvoort is also steeper at 19°
How is this not on science insider?
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.
Lies again? Game Design Learn Faster
I'm going to the 2020 Daytona 500, so I'm gonna get to see these Daytona banks with my own 2 eyes.
A wild Carnation appears
I already have seen those Daytona banks, I’ve BEEN on those Daytona banks
This comment aged poorly
Dead Uprising the daytona 500 was in February, so the race took place and with full grandstands.
I live next to the track, I see the banks from my apartment
3:58 why tf they’re using a video of Paul ricard???
I guess the average viewer cant tell, so they used it as stock footage
Yooooo wtf
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.
Well it involves physics that require more explanation than most viewers would care to learn.
@@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.
Search up "wall of death" people actually drive on 90° walls
I went to the Daytona 500 this year and during a caution, one of the cleaning trucks that was cleaning up oil cleaner broke down and actually SLID DOWN THE BANKING.
I would like to know this track one day
U don’t compare Daytona and Martinsville for bankings!
U use Bristols for that!
You must be dumb they were compairing steepness. Martinsville is little daytona is high...
31º steep angle? [laughs in AVUS]
Fillipe356 oh boi..
Laughs in monza
“Talleadega super speed way “ shows auto club
I love how at 4:10 he’s talking about Talladega but they’re showing AutoClub speedway and just before that they were showing Paul Ricard in France lmao
NobodY:
Nascar Cars: *I am speed.*
Why is this fun for you I couldn't imagine sitting around commenting dumb stuff all day everyday
@@alltheworldswonders4926 I know right! Annoying af honestly
Let the man do what he wants.
Turns are angeled for more grip. please proceed to your next video
“Daytona was unlike any racetrack before it” I guess Monza doesn’t exist
JayPlaysStuff that’s true, but I was referring to how he was implying that Daytona is the first banked circuit. That’s not true, Monza was completed in 1922, 37 years before Daytona.
@@Bigpimpdaddy69 and Brooklands in england was built in 1907 and came before all of them. the point is what made nascar faster not which track was built when.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooklands
This is not even the first nascar track to have banking
@@calebgarland2756 he mentioned that. But Daytona was the steepest.
@@mastervz4806
Except for ones like Monza, Brooklands or that one in France. They're all steeper than superspeedways, even Talladega.
I remember watching Nascar with my dad and collecting the toy cars....Nascar's heyday is long gone
Omg ur literally everywhere
@@AnselZeng IKR!!!
Justin Y 2.0
@@AnselZeng bruh, foreal
@@HerreDePerre Hell no
What about the old Monza track?
No recognition, no one in the US who doesn't watch FIA races knows about it.
Brandon Devine wrong
@Brandon Devine Daytona speedway was built in 1959 and historic Monza was built in 1922
The banked oval at Monza was built in 1954--just 5 years before Daytona. The 30 degree banks at Brooklands, however, were built all the way back in 1907.
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).
1:30 Oh Lawd my eyes looks weird imo.
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?
F1s better🤣 but Nascar is cool I guesss
Sure if you like parades
Nate Burck F1 is the fastest parade on Earth wym?
Can you do a video on why my life is a joke
Who else forgot NASCAR still existed
Not me its been my favorite sport since 1995
Just you.
I would love to see a new circuit featuring a turn based on the Daytona banks in F1!
Why oh why would we need/want that
Why that would be useless
Yeah there’s one it’s a Dutch circuit f1 is racing there next year
Zandvoort says hi
@Matthew Chandler
lol if michelin had the proper data just like bridgestone the tire fiasco in 2005 would've never happened
Ok yea they’re not just faster cause of the bank walls f1 cars or motogp bikes can hit 200mph on flat tracks
To be fair motogp bank when theyre turning approx. 60-ish degree and formula 1 have a huge amount of downforce and low center of gravity, unlike stock car where they dont have much downforce to actually plant the vehicle to the ground
without engine restrictions, straight line is more like 225mph.
Yeah, but Cup cars have 550 HP and weigh 3300 pounds, compared to ~1000 HP and 1455 pounds. So twice the weight, half the horsepower, but just 15 mph less at top speed (205 vs 220).
Fernando Alonso did a qualifying lap here.
Lol where good drivers show their keep *shows Bubba Wallace*
What next? Might as well show Danica Patrick!
These people really do be forgetting about Formula 1 where cars can turn 90 degree corners with no banking at around 250kph
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
Ricky Bobby is the best nascar driver 😂
I want to the 2019 Daytona 500 earlier this year and it was pretty cool seeing those cars fly past me with my own eyes at over 200 miles per hour. I actually got to walk on the racetrack and almost fell down when I was trying to walk up the entrance to turn one.
any car or truck traveling at a moderate speed can stay up on the banking. How do u think track drying trucks stay up at the top of the banking, and there only going at about 15mph.
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.
1:50 true . That's how I used to win at NFS !.
Bit of a half explanation in this video...
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.
1:10 Only showed Bubba Wallace (not the greatest NASCAR driver)
not just momentum, you forgot about the drag created from each car, and how they use it to slow the other car down, thats what makes the biggest difference to have speed to overtake
so what about all the idiots in the stands watching them go in circles? how do u explain that?
Hol up the supra is a nascar?!
Is hydraulic balancer tank in the trunk or middle body sides pocket allowed? So fast turn kept on the track so create advantage over regular design use wider wheel
And why Texas should bring it’s bankings back up again
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.
@@thejman3489 it's boring now though. To be fair, most races are boring with high downforce.
Woah, someone's hacking on Mario Kart Wii
I could have sworn the cars were faster in the 80’s than they are now. Right?
how is this related to *BUSINESS* insider? more like car/science insider
they're sponsored
i guess
but what about all the morons and idiots in the stands watching them go in circles? how do u explain that?
I used to absolutely hate nascar cuz every morning and day I was watching my childrens cartoons/shows on the weekends they would cut my program short because NASCAR was starting lol now I have a slight respect for it just because of Ricky Bobby
walking circle hour year age david good 2023 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029
I can't believe these Americans think that the car with more horsepower always wins. Like, do you really think that a Bugatti Veyron will win a dirt rally, even against small Mustangs? No, because it's not the freaking horsepower that counts, it's the goddamn driving and design according to the race.
Y did y’all show bubba if u guys are talking about good mascara drivers
Imagine a night race Of a track that is Steeper mentality and bigger
*this is why i love physics.*
Except it's *bad* physics here
Kendi dilimde araştırma yapmama rağmen bir türlü tatmin edici bilgi bulamadığım konuyu 4 dakikada bana anlattınız. Bunun için teşekkür ederim. Bu soru 2019 üniversite sınavında çıktı...
You couldn't even go straight easily way off shits way hard to do or everyone be a champion
I'm just glad they showed my driver, truex a lot
1:48 yes thats true but the car needs to be fast the bigger the team the faster the car moast of the time smaller teams such as spire moterssports cars are slower as team penskey has a faster car
I like NASCARS but i dont like the crashing
You talk too much on the same thing
4:08 - Not so: If your street machine could capably maintain at least 70-80mph in a place like Daytona, you'd stick. But your right foot had better stick to the gas also!
how was this not obvious
Have these guys ever heard of Brooklands or AVUS? The idea of using banked turns to improve speed is hardly new.
Lol overly simplified. To talk about making it faster get into weight transfer during braking/accelerating aero grip vs mechanical grip.
The only reason i came here was to see the actual bankings of these roads. The physics of it i already knew, not boasting. My mind has been roasted by physics.
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.
I already knew this from playing video games smh
is the thumb nail from real racing???
It's Centrifugal not Centripigal !
“Driving a stock car on a straightaway would be easy for you or me”
False. I can’t drive.
Great for speed but ruined racing.
NASCAR BABY
It's Centrifugal not Centripigal
It's Centrifugal not Centripigal
It's Centrifugal not Centripigal
Ricky Bobby's dad: If you ain't first son, you've turned right.
The one design change that turned NASCAR racing into infinite Drag racing.
can you do a video on my Gucci is so expensive
I thought the gravity would drag the car into the turn lmao
simplest explanation: its not a drifting event.
x1.25
Here after f1 zandoorvort
so indy up north and brooklands in england did not invent banked corners then? hell even cycling had banked corners before 1959!
Indy is 9 degrees. But you're right, plenty of tracks had banking. Daytona just took it to the extreme and put it on a massive 2.5 mile track.
you know it also matters what pavement they use at the track
Indy already have
More than anything this video taught people how to do donuts with their cars....
Stock??? my ass
Questions for the Future of Nascar: What if Tesla enters Nascar?
Hell no
To slow at everything
It'll run 100 miles and then require a pitstop for a 30 minute recharge.
Only REAL nascar fans will understand the sport
Wait why was there a clip of Paul Ricard?
physics 12
America: haha no metric system go brrrrr
Rest of the world: MEIN GOTT MUSS DAS SEIN?!?!?!
u talk 5mins about turning left, smh
No wonder I dominate on carreer mode on nh4 lol
why is this in my science class
Where is What in Carnation?
Or drafting
I'm waiting for the moment when nascar tracks add a right turn. That would be quite revolutionary.
Sure, maybe they should run some races on a road course like Sonoma or Watkins Glen.
Riverside was an old California road course where drivers didn't "just turn left". Hell, they've raced in Watkins Glen, Indianapolis's road course, etc. So there you go, they did have "real" racing that would appease you.
Is Indianapolis speedway better?
Yess
Where Good drivers earn there keep (shows Bubba) yeah not him. Great Video tho
What next? Why not show Danica Patrick?
Well that comment aged well after Talladega
Reminds me of Cartman when he was using Vagisil
Turn right to go left
are we pretending that banked turns didnt exist before 1959?
for americans: yes
they also believe they were the first including human rights into their constitution
salamipitza I mean Darlington was a thing before 1959 so yeah
Hey math plus physics = genius
Removing the restrictor plates and uncucking the entire sport would make all the cars faster.
