   There’s about 200 of them.  I don’t know if there’s any one place which
   lists them all, altho there’s a pretty long list in the back of the National
   Speedway Directory.

   Off the top of my head:

   NASCAR (Winston Cup, Busch Grand National, Craftsman Trucks, All Pro
   late models, Southwest Tour, Winston West, Northwest Tour, BGN North,
   Featherlite Modifieds, and about 8 more series)

   ASA (late models)

   Hav-A-Tampa (HATS) (dirt late models)

   USAR (Hooters cup series)

   ARCA (winston cup type cars)

   World of Outlaws (WoO) (sprint cars)

   Club All-Stars (?)(sprint cars)

   NCRA (sprint cars)

   IMCA (modifieds and late models)

   CART (pointy cars)

   IRL (pointy cars)

   USAC (sprints, midgets, champ cars)

   DIRT (dirt modifieds)

   STARS (dirt late models)

   NHRA (drag racing)

   IHRA (drag racing)

   SCCA (trans-am and other sports cars)

   ARTGO (late models ?)

   ISMA (super mods)

   hope this helps,

   John

   (incidently, I’ve seen races from all of these except STARS
   and ARTGO on the TV at one time or another)

   Those (at minimun) other eight NASCAR series includes:
     Re/Max Challenge, Goody Dash and whatever they are going to call the various
   ‘Winston Racing Series’ divisions

    Don’t forget the ‘world’ sanctioning body, F1 returning to the USA at Indy
   this year.
    FIA (Formula One, World Class Touring, and many ‘Rally Car’ series)

   If memory serves, this was swallowed up by NASCAR and is now the Re/Max
   Challenge Series.  Rules have been changing to fit the other NASCAR Late Model
   series’ rules.  (chasis, body, engine)
