PITS - Area of a race track, off the racing surface, where a car stops for servicing. Because of a tire's makeup, slight variations in circumference result. Stagger applies to only bias-ply tires and not to radials. Term comes from the manufacturer's stick-on label denoting the type of tire, price, etc. Road courses are included.
Racers refer to three types of oval tracks.
Not to be confused with a triangle-shaped speedway which has only three distinct corners. Inc. This site is best viewed at a screen resolution of 800 x 600 or higher. All materials on this website are intended for personal or editorial use.
