But like any great performance those boys make it look easy.

F1 vs nascar speed. Despite being powered by a v 8 engine nascar vehicles average out at a top speed of just over 321 kmh 200 mph which is quite a bit slower than the top speeds recorded in f1 and indycar vehicles. Nascar vehicles are pretty impressive but so are f1 cars. 2 do not miss the start of the f1 race.

Stock cars can reach speeds of about 200 miles per hour just a bit slower than f1s 205. All three types of racecars can easily go over 200 miles per hour but some have better acceleration rates. Nascar nails that one with the smoke and noise and fist fights.

And some f1 races have only one stop. Next to this f1 looks a little more modest and whichever way you. Nascar vehicles have got a lot more weight on them than f1 cars but they arent that far behind when it comes to reaching top speeds.

An indycar may take up to three seconds to get from 0 to 90 while nascar and f1 cars can get there in as little as two seconds. Even the pit stops are shorter in f1 taking 3 4 seconds while a full nascar stop is 13 15 seconds. Factoring in acceleration nascar still comes out behind the other two types of cars with an average acceleration of 34 seconds to go from 0 to 96 kmh 60 mph.

Speaking on race times f1 races are generally timed and end after 2 hours regardless of how many laps have been completed while nascar races go. Who pays for it. Racecars are extremely expensive to build and maintain.

The longest of them the nascar race can take just under four hours to complete and cover over 330 laps while formula one and indycar races like the indianapolis 500 can average around 200 laps. The current top speeds recorded in nascar are around 321kmh quite a bit slower than f1 and indycar. An f1 car has an average top speed of 233 mph whereas a nascar vehicle does 200 mph.
