Many new fans, who tune into this shrine of American Stock Car racing each weekend, wonder why the cars don’t have side windows.

Well, the answer is two-fold. Firstly, these cars aren’t designed to look normal, they’re designed to go fast.

After all, it’s because of aerodynamics.

The current generation of Stock Cars (Next Gen) is built specifically around this idea. Having windows can create an unsavory phenomenon known as wind resistance or drag.

This is what slows the cars down. Eliminating this ensures that in a sport where even a fraction of a second can mean victory or tears, each driver has the best aerodynamically functioning machinery at their disposal.

Choosing to do away with windows altogether in NASCAR cars is a measured move by the sport to ensure that driver safety is prioritized.

Firstly, in cases of crashes, it is easier to extract a driver without windows.

These cars have safety nettings instead which ensure that no limbs come flailing out when the car takes a hit.

Secondly, the current spec of NASCAR cars, without windows, have a better opportunity to ventilate the cockpit and control temperatures.

This is extremely important given that these races can be 3-4 hours long with sweltering temperatures inside the cars.
