Dodge Cars in the History of NASCAR

Have you ever been to a NASCAR race? If you have then the word NASCAR should bring back some memories. There you were at those Saturday night races sitting under the moon and stars as the cars were flying past you at top speeds as they grinded into those walls, crowds cheering for their fans and crows booing at the villain. We believe there was nothing more fun then spending a Saturday night at the Darlington's Dodge Challenger 500.

The dodge cars would start the races looking nice, fast and shiny then what did you get when they ended the race? Balled tired and a car that looked liked it was 30 years old, all falling apart and no paint. There is no doubt when the race was over those Dodges looked like they had been through a meat grinder. Then you have those drivers of the Dodge cars talking about how they had survived the race and how lucky they feel to have gotten to drive in the race. Then you have the racecar drivers families thanking goodness they survived.

Through the history of dodges in the NASCAR do you realize just how many individuals were hurt trying to win a race? The truth is a lot of individuals went through injuries and a lot of families went through a lot of worrying wondering if their loved one was going to make it out of the race. For instance take when Elliot Sadler attempted to drive underneath Tony Stewert but instead of driving underneath what he did was slid up the track, which left him pinning both him and the other driver against the wall. This not only caused damage to the cars but it also left Sadler out of the race for good and Stewert never did fully recover. When you think about the Dodge cars in the history of NASCAR and you know your stuff then you just can not help to think about those individuals who have been through injuries during their races.

There are many different Dodge racecars that were used throughout NASCAR history. You have the Dodge Avenger, Dodge Charger and the Dodge Intrepid. Those three Dodge's just so happened to be some of the top three Dodge cars to race in NASCAR. On a side note we would like to tell you that the Dodge charger just so happens to be a lot of individuals favorite car and it always has been. Many individuals like how good the Dodge charger did in the NASCAR races to the point they just had to go out and buy them a Dodge charger for themselves. We would like to tell you that while driving a enterprise Dodge Richard Petty won his fifth NASCAR Cup Championship.
