Midgets

Midget cars have been the star attraction at Springs Speedway for many years and it doesn't look like that is about to change any time soon.

Their popularity isn't price related however, these cars don't come cheap with the majority of the top ranking cars today having price tags well in excess of the $100,000 mark.

Unlike other forms of motorsport midgets have just one gear and with the average lap being around the 14 second mark, there is not a lot of time for gear changes anyway.
