That needn't always be. Faster cars are built lower to the ground. This is primarily to lower the center of gravity of the car. If the car is much higher above the ground, it's center of gravity would also be higher and that means the car would have lesser stability. Fast cars have to be stable even at high speeds and a slight nudge would be enough to throw the car off-balance if the ground clearance is high. Hence as a safety measure, fast and super cars are built lower to the ground.

How does air resistance effect a car?
the more air pressure you have the more it will resist the cars movement increasing friction and increasing the energy consumption
What makes a car streamline?
so that the car will go faster and thecorners and the distence from the ground makes it streamlined .The rounder the corners the more streamlined it is
Can you use car wax to make a snowboard go faster?
Yes, wax will lower the drag coefficient of the snowboard.
What are lowering blocks?
they are spacers that go in between the leaf spring and the axle in the rear of a car to put the springs down lower, and to raise the axle up to make the car lower to the ground.
How does air resistance allow the car to go faster?
The air creates friction, just like the ground. With less friction, the less pushing the car back.
Does a car go faster or slower down a ramp?
Generally, the car should go faster.
Can A Car Go Faster Than A Cheeta?
yes a car can go faster Than A Cheetah
What pedal in the car is pushed to make the car go faster?
The pedal in the car you push to go faster is the accelerator pedal.
Can a car or lion go faster?
car
Does a solar car ride faster with 3 or 4 wheels?
Do you mean go faster? All things being equal, a 3-wheeled solar car would have a lower rolling resistance compared to a 4-wheeled solar car. It would be more energy efficient, and therefore able to go faster. A 4-wheeled solar car is inherently more stable.
What can make your balloon powered car go faster?
use bigger wheels and use less friction on the ground make it weigh less
What is the part of the car you should put force on to make the car go faster?
You would apply force to the accelerator to make the car go faster.
