Yes, the whole race was exciting to watch. There was about 80 lead changes and a few good wreaks.

pretty impressive how close he was behind him, although the lead car only had to hold the inside line on the last turn to win, must be kicking himself.

These cars drive without letting up on the gas for the whole race and is usually a huge line or 2 of cars going as fast as 200 mph. The only way to leave the pack is to find a friend and start a draft of 2 cars. Think that what makes this race so fun to watch. Usually the front guy gets hung out to dry unless he has a really good car because the second car has less air friction and gets going faster.

Very nice, but I think those drivers are blind. Seems the track is turned into a field for them. Also their pit crews seem to be missing, prolly at the local bar.

Aye it's Banger Racing, they have a track which runs around a field inside a proper 'Banger Stadium' and then its pretty much no holds barred, last car moving wins.

Lots of fun and often as tempers fly it's not unusual to see drivers and crews start kicking the crap out of each other too. Theres definately some skill involved though, the trick is to avoid as much contact as you can for as long as possible, and to be able to land a right hook whilst climbing out of a window and leaping accross the bonnet of a moving vehicle.

I've seen them do it with caravans attatched too, thats even more fun.

On the last lap...it never fails. Most of the cars were out. Plus the happy 19 year old kid gets mad at a veteran. What a fun race Cool
