A term used to accurately describe the Panoz DP01 car used by an obscure insignificant club racing series funded by its owners known as the Champ Car World Series. Said car frequently broke down, suffered from fuel leaks, and injured Paul Tracy when it barely tapped a wall at only 30 mph. So destructive were these cars that the series went bankrupt within a year and teams had to be given cars and money to be able to continue racing. Only one such machine is known to be in running order.
A small, annoying band of masochistic, hermit racing fans of the failed venture choose to erroneously apply to Indycars, which by comparison are faster, safer, and more entertaining.

At Cleveland in 2007, Paul Tracy's crapwagon flew over Sebastien Bourdais' similar crapwagon. Tracy punted another car and went on to win.

Get the crapwagon mug.This term was coined by Canadian racing driver and 2003 CART champion Paul Tracy to describe the cars used in the rival IRL series. These cars tended to have a nose up attitude that cause them to fly, especially on oval tracks. These cars, built by Dalara to specifications created by the IRL, were extremely dangerous as evidenced by the number of serious injuries and deaths suffered by IRL drivers over the course of many years. Unlike the aforementioned DP01, in which only one driver was seriously injured. It should be noted that the ChampCar series which ran the DP01 fixed the issue that cause this injury before its next race, hence there was no re-occurrence.
The IRL crapwagon's tendency to literally fly was responsible for multiple career ending injuries and several deaths.

The DVLA only grants "chavwagon" status to a vehicle if it complies with the following requirements:
- The exhaust pipe must be fitted with a fake exhaust cap to make the vehicle sound like it has flatulence problems.
- The vehicle must have a child seat in the front passenger seat with the head against the seat with malfunctioning seatbelt.
- The petrol cap must be missing.
- Each wheel must have cheap alloy material typically purchased from eBay or Del-boy.
- At least one of the car's wing mirrors must be smashed, cracked or preferably missing.
- Tyre pressures must be capable of witholding at minimum five chavs, their mothers and their "loot".
- Whilst in operation, all passengers must wear baseball caps at a 45 degree angle. Strict fines are in place for drivers of chavmobiles not wearing necessary head gear.
- Chavwagons MUST NOT under any circumstances hold valid insurance or a full MOT certificate.
- Taxation discs must be scrumpled up as to hide the actual expiry date; thus creating confusion for DVLA vans and traffic wardens.
