How are racing cars designed to go fast?
Most modern cars are designed for comfortable travel. Racing cars, however, are designed for speed. They are very light, but strong, and the powerful engines are designed to accelerate extremely fast. The tyres are wide, so they grip the road extremely well. The bodywork is designed to reduce air resistance, and special fins are added to improve handling and road holding.
