to make them different!!
Horse racing in America is counter clockwise on an oval track, mostly on dirt (or artificial dirt) and also on turf. The courses vary more in Australia and Europe, often clockwise or part so and mostly on turf.
In a track cycling the riders cycle around the track in a anti clockwise directionTrack cycling (on a velodrome or banked bicycle racing oval) is always counter-clockwise, turning left. This is the standard direction for racing throughout the world. -

Auto Racing
Most all races go counterclockwise, especially foot races. The reason for this has to do with the idea that the right side of the body is stronger, so the outside leg on a counterclockwise turn is designed to take advantage of this tendency. This mostly gives advantage to right-oriented people, and left-oriented people have to accommodate the 'rightees.'
All horse racing in Melbourne Australia is run anticlockwise in New South Wales and Queensland races are run clockwise.
Aluminum horse shoes are mostly used for Thoroughbred Horse racing.
not all race tracks run counter-clockwise , Brands Hatch, Mallory Park, and I think Donington Park are examples that run clockwise . No they can be set up to run either way .
Mostly because sports are mainly human interaction and racing is cars, I suppose.
The website GPUpdate is a website that provides updates, pictures, racing schedules and calendars for auto racing fans. It covers mostly Formula One races and MotoGP racing.
Illegal street racing. Mostly in heavily modified cars.
Whippet racing is the same as greyhound racing, only with whippets. this is not racing for money, like some people do with greyhounds, but it is mostly for fun. the dogs are put in the trap, which is a metal box with bars at the front. when they are let out, they chase the luar, the dog who is first wins the race. some people do whippet racing for a hobby.
