That is a nice thing about circle track racing.There is no transmission to blow up or lose power through, in the sprint cars and midgets. The very early ones used a "dog" clutch and the later ones a sliding sleeve in the rear end. The modifieds usually use a race transmission of which there are several brands. For the rear end, sprint cars and midgets use a typical quick change center section with an open axle and one inboard 2 puck disc brake.
Race transmissions and quick change rear ends have spur gears so they all whine.
