Constructor cars consisted of NASCAR style Chevrolet, Ford and Pontiac racers with a field that peaked at 37 drivers competing during the 2002 season.

Colin White and John Steward were the only drivers who raced in every season, whilst various drivers from a range of different styles of motorsport competed either single races or single seasons, most notably Colin McRae, Aaron Slight, Jason Plato, Max Papis, and the 2002 champion Nicolas Minassian.

"[2] The 2002 season saw the peak number of drivers racing in the series with 37 taking part during the year, representing a total of 13 teams.

The season saw its first American competitors compete as NASCAR drivers Randy Tolsma and Brandon Whitt both drove the no.48 Deuce Racing car, whereas Colin McRae, Darren Manning, Matt Neal and Jason Plato all joined XCEL Motorsport.

Darren Turner registered six-wins during the season but having missed the opening five-rounds he would only place 7th in the Championship with the title going to French driver Nicolas Minassian of RML Group who only won the one race back in Round 2.

[3] In 2003 the series took on the additional name of "Days of Thunder" after the film of the same name, the season was reduced to 13 rounds spanning over 8 events at both Rockingham and Lausitz.

Michael Vergers who had been with the series since the inaugural season took the title for Team West-Tec winning three of the twelves rounds which once more were all held at Rockingham.

The final recognised oval racing season was won by Colin White, with the field reduced once more to seven rounds, competed by only 15 drivers.

2008 heralded a new direction for the series with a focus on road courses due to a lack of dates offered by the oval tracks.

[4] In 1992, the Gen 4 car arrived at the sport when steel bodies became primarily custom made instead of using stock pieces, and wind tunnels became a staple as teams worked to gain aerodynamics.

[6][7][8][9][10][11][12] In 1995, Chevrolet switched back to the Monte Carlo, which started the trend of rounder body shapes in Cup and the then-Busch Series.

The Car of Tomorrow, by contrast, featured a symmetrical body in order to curb aerodynamic development wars in an attempt to cut costs.

[3] Further Champions were Ben Collins in 2003,[13] who also worked as The Stig on Top Gear during his ASCAR tenure,[14] Stevie Hodgson, Michael Vergers, Oli Playle and Colin White.

In 2002 and 2003 the series also raced in Germany at the EuroSpeedway Lausitz but the venue was eventually dropped due to the costs involved and the projected grid numbers of cars willing to make the journey.
