What Exactly is a Late Model?

Late models are so ubiquitous to short track racing that I don't know if I could find a track that doesn't have some variant of them as a weekly division. They are absolutely inescapable, but what the hell are they? Well, let's find out . . .

Welcome to the greatest sport in the world.

[@Enderbrine2323]

Little history lesson. At 3:10 in the video, the black number 3 in the lead there is driven by a man people like to call "Big Show." The video is taken at Lancaster Motor Speedway in South Carolina. Big Show unfortunatly passed away about a month ago but before that, her racked up over 600 wins at that track. To put that in perspective, the track only runs around 25 races a year. That means that he would have had to win every race heled there for 24 years straight. Truly a great of out time and he will not be forgotten. R.I.P. Also the 16 car at 9:29 run for the team I drive legend cars for.

The CARS Late Model Stock Tour is likely the most competitive in the country. Based in SC, NC & VA The whole schedule is comprised of high character old-school half miles and a couple bullrings.

I'm from Italy, and I first learned about these big boys on iRacing. Curiously enough, from an iRacing player's perspective, I didn't know that the World of Outlaws late models were in some kind of way related to the stock late models. The lore of oval racing is intriguing! I'm really looking forward to join the Nascar scene the next season with the Next-gen models. I hope it will grow in Europe, much like the NFL did in the past 10 years, even hosting some matches in London. If you guys make up your mind on the other side of the pond, just tell us in advance, and we will refurbish the Oval track in Monza lol. Anyway, great contents dude! Keep up the good work

[@travishanner9970]

As a short track, late model guy, THANK YOU!!! GREAT JOB!! Dick Trickle was a god, and Mark Martin dominated these cars back in the day!!!

[@DeepOwl1073]

I was jackman, then spotter on a team that ran late model cars from 99 to 2006 at a 1/3 mile asphalt track. I still have my NASCAR membership cards. Back then on the west coast, it was the Dodge weekly racing series. We had a 99 Monte, but switched bodies in 03 to one like the thumbnail. Somehow it was also a Monte Carlo lol. We had some wars. Seasons with the most wins, a ton of poles, trophy dash wins, fist fights, ambulance rides...but no Championship. Watching Jr win the Pepsi 400 from the infield of our little track felt like we were at Daytona. I developed life long friendships at that track. Thanks for the memories!

[@rainingmoneyx]

Remember when NASCAR had their own super late model series, there isn't really a video discussing their history because they all had a unique history

One of the things that makes me never run out of love for auto racing is the myriad kinds of cars that can be seen having it out on tracks everywhere. Some of them are straight ridiculous looking, and yet perfect for their job; and I love them best.

[@14stockfan]

Supermodifieds are the best example of that, I think. Those cars are insane.

Great video - it's surprising how little people talk about the difference in racing classes, it always just seems implied. I also love that you're trying to turn more fan on to their local short tracks.

[@chrisennis9686]

Man I rly do wish you could do a video on Oglethorpe speedway park in Pooler Georgia.... They just had their last weekend of racing, the weekend of November the 13th and it's sad because it was a nascar track back in the day and the finally ran the vintage late model class on the last night of racing for the history books. Sad to see it go after 70 years of getting down and dirt, Richard Petty started on Lee Petty's pit crew there and Dale Earnhardt, fireball Roberts and many other greats raced there and I'd like you to do a video on the place... It's full of history

[@noahkaufman6063]

Love the outlaw late models man. The 18 car you showed runs at my local track. Those cars absolutely fly around the track, and look insane doing it. Great vid slap.

[@gregoriousblantonius]

As a fairly casual motorsports fan, this video actually answered a TON of questions I’ve had for a while. Cheers!

[@KrazyKeith4]

I'm so glad you're more or less making this a series. My dad freakin loved the supermodified video. He was a little disappointed that you didn't mention the West Coast Supers or Troy Regier, his favorite supermodified driver. In case you're looking to do a third episode in the series, I'd suggest Sprint Cars. The variety is about as crazy as the Late Models.

[@Tunda2]

My absolute favorite period in racing, where from the cup series all the way down to your local super late model divisions were essentially driving the same car with different engines, specifically the gen 4s. The lower tier national guys would just run old cup cars, then they would pass them down to the regional guys and so on.

The ACT tour is fun to watch but up here in the northeast the pro all star series (super late models) is where it’s at. One of our own, Derek Griffith, actually made a start for Kyle Busch’s truck team this past season

[@JeffBrown781]

Correct, and even then it's a bit muddy. PASS presents itself as a Super Late Model touring series, but PASS isn't strictly ABC-compliant (particularly with crate engines, but built motors would be wasted on most of our tracks). In some ways it's closer to a Pro Late Model. The Granite State Pro Stock Series, as its name suggests in a roundabout way, is far more along the lines of a Pro Late Model compliant with the ABC Committee. The ACT Late Model rules specify a perimeter chassis, but some teams have used straight rail cars in the past; ACT brings in a shock rule, 8" tires and a crate motor, so they're not quite like a NASCAR-spec Late Model Stock Car. There's a lot of nomenclature involved and it's quite ticky-tack at times!

[@justinspiewak1482]

The ACT Tour and the PASS Series don't come anywhere close to modifieds. I'm from Connecticut and seen the ACT Tour and PASS Series race at all 3 tracks and the modifieds beat them even at Thompson which is run by both ACT and PASS

Didnt notice Wake County Speedway at 9:01. My father used to live about a 1/4 mile from it and you could hear them racing every friday night. I remember we got invited to a race there and were invited to watch from the infield. We were all standing on the upper platform of the car trailer and I decided to go down the ladder, When I did however, the cinder block the trailer was resting on broke and threw me off! I wasnt hurt but it was still a big scare! This was probably in about.......2004? 2005? We also used to hold nightly car meets there through the Raleigh Meets facebook page and were allowed to park on the track, I even got to drive my Miata around it slowly and MAN what a steep back stretch that track has!

[@fencingboy101]

A video I'd really like to see is something along the lines of "how to watch a nascar race" i recently saw the Martinsville 500 in person, my first nascar race. and while I enjoyed myself, I did feel somewhat at a loss for what to be watching for. A video on what to look for and where to watch while the race is going on would be very interesting and informative to me and other people new to the sport.

[@needsLITHIUM]

My first in-person race was a modified late model race, from back when Nascar still used vastly different cars in the Grand Nationals and the cup, at Hialeah Speedway in South Florida, and this particular series followed the models for the Grand Nationals series. I still remember the name of the driver who won: Ricky Bryant, in a Lance Foods sponsored number 5 Pontiac. The indigestion I earned from the chili dog, multiple corn dogs, and greasy funnel cake I ate as my parents devoured Cuban Sandwiches was delicious and well worth it. My next race would be the 300 mile Busch Grand National Series race at Homestead-Miami, followed by the Winston Cup Race the next day. Our seats were on the front straight, right before turn 1. My gramps had a pit radio scanner.

[@ohiomotorsports]

At 08:09 that is Brandon Short's car that ran at Midvale Speedway. Which actually is now Mike Mazzagatti's car as of the 2022 season running the #87 at Barberton Speedway in Ohio.

I can't say I knew Chase Elliot before he was famous, because even during short track years he was Bill's kid so... But, I did get to shake his hand when we were both 15 and it is kind of crazy to think back on. It was at Lanier Speedway in Georgia which sadly has been closed for some time. Loved going there on the weekends and watching racing. Lanier closed and then Gresham opened up, but then Gresham stopped holding races and turned into a practice facility only it seems.

[@racerboy9ify]

I’ll even go into deal on dirt late models as well. In my area, you have your super lates, which run basically any engine size and material (steel or aluminum) and shock combination. You also have semi or limited lates which limits the shocks, carburetor, and engine size (358 cubic inches max) There’s also 604 and 602 crate lates and depending on where you live, they get called different names. 604’s are also called Pro late models and 602’s are also called late model sportsmans. There’s also mini late models that look like a scaled down car that usually runs a 4.3 liter V6

One thing that I think is important to note is that while late model racing is definitely a stepping stone on the path to NASCAR, and may be entry level for some, the costs of running a late model is very significant and most drivers start out in something like a quarter midget, legends car or street stock. Loved the video and lots of great information here! I'd love to see one about sprint car racing. As a NASCAR fan in my childhood I never gave dirt open wheel racing a thought until I got involved with micro sprints on dirt.
