Dirt track racing

One happening during a day at the dirt track. It started well enough, my brother and I arrived early and were racing around worry-free. Eventually, the newly added sand section got the best of me. I was bored of taking that specific part slowly, so I worked up a little bit of courage and rode hard through the sand. Unfortunately…

The first camaro went for sale in 1966 and came out in 1967 known as the 1967 camaro z28, It was designed for a competing car to the ford mustang. The first generation camaros came out from 1966-1981. Back in the 70’s when dirt track racing was starting to get big they would typically use camaros and novas for race cars. If some of you have seen today’s camaros from the older ones they don’t look anything alike the older ones to me i like better because of the looks they are made stronger and…

to help create things that help people go faster, run more efficiently, and overall work better. One of these technology advancements was cars, but more specifically race cars. Race cars are now able to accelerate quicker, have better materials for racing, but are even safe than before. This is because of many advances in technology, tires, and materials used. One advance in technology is making hybrid cars. Toyota, for example, at the Le Mans race, used a hybrid car in the race entering…

They said because of the tone of my voice, “It wasn’t important enough to get here quickly.” They did a small search for any clues as to who it might be doing these things to my property. They said that the brick had ammonia on it so they couldn't track fingerprints. But how would ammonia be on it and not ruin the picture? Unless they had been planning it for a…

is the more popular of the two and is more commonly watched among most Americans. Instead of being played outside, Supercross is played in an indoor arena kind of like a football stadium but much smaller. The arena usually have a roof so that the track will not get ruined if the weather turns. Much like Motocross, Supercross also scores the riders on a system of points for their placement in the race, and the amount of points that they make for the placements is the exact same. The only…

Line Road, near Alfalfa, Oregon, the large sign at the entrance served as a notice that I was entering the Oregon Badlands Wilderness. Exploring the wilderness areas in Central Oregon and absorbing the seclusion they offer is invigorating. Beyond the dirt parking lot at the trailhead a gravel road continued into the federally protected wilderness area. Designated wilderness areas do not allow any vehicles, but here was a well-maintained gravel road. Disembarking from my Subaru and heading out,…

He had an option give up his horse or quit his job, he decided to leave his job in search of a better paying job as an owner of a one-man racing stable he left Denton County in the spring of 1877.

These vehicles have become very popular throughout the years. Even though ATVs cannot be driven on public roads, they are used in racing or riding around their neighborhood if the individual or family lives in a secluded area. Motorcycles aren’t rare to see on public roads, but the amount of motorcycles usually seen are nowhere near the number of cars and trucks seen. These vehicles…

the intern of Earth Island Journal, Natale Servino’s article, “NASCAR Goes Green?”, she opens with a description of most Southern Rednecks dreams. She gives the description of NASCAR being “an endless stream of RV’s at a standstill, waiting to fill dirt parking lots. People congregating around barbecue grills, drink a few cold ones, and talk strategy” (Servino). Being from the south myself, I can relate to this scenario. In the article, Ms. Servino brings to light the pros and cons of NASCAR as…

Is Jay Gatsby really dead? What they didn’t tell you in the book was the night that Jay Gatsby was buried it turned out to be a one of those nights where it felt just a little spooky. The shadows pulled long faces at the moon and the black trees looked as if they were touching the sky. Every movement in the quiet forest by the cemetery was a yell in the silence. Johnny and his friends were playing in woods by the cemetery and heard a bell ringing. Being curious the boys went to investigate the…
