How fast do bomber cars go?

May be...

  • depends on the track size. at a 1/4 mile asphat track they can go about 75 mph would guess, maybe a little faster. i have never driven one but my late model does about 135 or so and i run a couple seconds faster than the bombers.
  • i am fixin to race bomber cars and i am wondering how fast they go
  • How fast they go typically depends on where you run, and what type of surface. A pavement track will typically reach higher speeds than a dirt track. A longer track will allow you to get greater speeds than a short track. Typically you have greater speeds down longer straightaways than through the corners.

    Your speed also can depend on your track rules for engines, fuel and tires.

    But for an example, the Bomber track record at Mobile International Speedway, a 1/2 mile paved oval, is approx 75 mph.

    The fast time from a bomber on this night at Mountain Motor Speedway was 17.26. This is a 3/8 mile dirt track in KY which equates to 78 mph. The rules appear to be different at these 2 tracks, so its difficult to make a solid comparison.

    At Shasta Raceway Park in Anderson, CA, looks like fast time on this 3/8 mile paved oval was 19.1, which is just over 50 mph.

    Hopefully that answers your question. If the track is 3/8-1/2 mile, its probably between 50-75 mph. Under 3/8 mi would probably be slower. But there are a lot of factors that would determine how fast you could potentially go.l3700tk
