Welcome to the UK
Modifieds Website
UK
Modifieds are oval track race cars that use modern high powered
motorcycle engines which produce up to 200bhp, and in a car that
weighs only 500kg's this makes them very fast indeed. To a newcomer these cars may look slightly
odd at first sight with their flat side panels and unique shape, but
this serves to make this class of oval motorsport stand out from the
rest together with the amazing high revving roar of the engines when
powering round an oval race track.
These cars are a huge hit in the USA where
the race division [Modlites/Dwarf Car Racing] is a popular class with racers across the country.
With a high power to
weight ratio the UK Modifieds provide agility and fast, competitive
racing, the performance and 0-60 is extreme!
Cars have been imported from the USA for racing use here in the UK, but drivers are now
starting to build their own, the cars are basically a spaceframe
chassis with a `stock' body shell bolted on, they are a reasonably
priced race division to get involved in and have some fast racing
fun. A typical investment of around 7k will see you `on track' and
maintenance and transportation costs are extremely economic allowing
regular racing on a very modest budget.
