Random fact #24:

Many automotive magazines (Road&Track included) once used piston speed (the fastest verticle speed a piston) as a measurement of performance. While one may think that Formula 1 cars would be on top as having the fastest pistons (with their high revving engines and such), it is actually the tyical NASCAR engine that comes out on top; with a longer stroke, the piston needs to move farther than in a F1 engine.
