oval racing

Oval racing is a form of motorsport where cars race on a circular or oval-shaped track, typically with multiple laps. Unlike traditional road racing, the focus is on high-speed, continuous competition around a closed circuit, emphasizing consistency, precision, and strategic overtaking. Drivers navigate through turns at high velocity, often reaching speeds over 200 mph, requiring advanced skill and vehicle control. Popular in sports like NASCAR and IndyCar, oval racing combines speed, strategy, and close competition, creating a thrilling experience for spectators. The format allows for exciting, wheel-to-wheel action that tests driver skill and team coordination.
