stock car racing
Modified sedan competition
Stock car racing is a form of automobile racing using modified production vehicles—cars that began as standard factory models rather than purpose-built racers.
The sport originated in the American South, where drivers who had souped up their cars to outrun law enforcement during Prohibition later competed against each other.
NASCAR dominates the sport in the United States: Stock car racing draws huge crowds at Daytona.
