A Quarter Midget car is a scaled-down version of an actual midget racer,
approximately 1/4 scale. The cars are built around a tubular frame and are
fully suspended with springs or torsion bars and shocks. The bodies are
fiberglass, usually painted to the drivers preference. Surrounding the
driver is a chrome-moly roll cage and nerf bars. The engines are single
cylinder and are manufactured by Honda, Continental, Briggs & Stratton,
and Deco. In the motors stock configuration they produce between 2.5 & 4
horse power. Modifications in the upper classes allow these engines to
reach several times the stock horse power. These air-cooled 4-cycle
engines are reliable and can produce as much as 10,000 rpm's in their
more highly modified forms.
