This definition of sprint car racing's only world championship is on Wikipedia where much more about the formula in Australia, New Zealand, USA and South Africa appears. This is what Wikipedia has to say about the Sprint Car World Championship: Sprint Car World Championship: "Despite the 50 plus years of Sprint car racing, the category has only ever held one official "World Championship". This was in 1987 at the 550 metres (600 yd) Claremont Speedway in Perth, Western Australia. The event attracted the best drivers from Australia, NZ, Canada, South Africa, as well as several World of Outlaws drivers, headed by regular visitor to Australia, Steve Kinser. Australian veteran Garry Rush from Sydney, a 10 time winner of the Australian Sprintcar Championship, was the winner and so far the only ever Sprint car World Champion."[/i]
