NASCAR Cars!!!! 

NASCAR is the largest sanctioning body of Stock Car Racing in the United States. The three largest racing series sanctioned by NASCAR are the Sprint Club Series, the Nationwide Series, and the Camping World Truck Series. 

NASCAR sanctions over 1500 races at over 100 tracks in 39 US states and Canada. NASCAR has presented exhibition races at the Suzuka and Motegicircuits in Japan, Mexico, and Calder Park Raceway in Australia.

NASCAR's headquarters are located in Daytona Beach Florida, although it also maintains offices in four North Carolina cities; Regional offices are also located in New York City, Los Angeles, Bentoville, Arkansas, and international offices in Mexico City and Toronto. Additionally, owing to its Southern roots, all but a handful of NASCAR teams are still based in North Carolina, especially near Charlotte.

NASCAR has 75 million fans who purchase over $3 billion annually in licensed products. 

The largest NASCAR tracks can accommodate upwards of 190,000 people in the stands and infield, far larger than any non-Motorsport venue in North America.
