11:17 - the way No 16 stuck his hand out to push himself back upright again shows the material that champions are made of!

I miss this place, Arena Essex was brill and Firecracker was in the UK one of the best meets with the best follow ins

[@azhurelpigeon]

That old gold Caddy was absolutely indestructible!

[@mistie710]

That's Allan Trickett for you! Every year it was big, gold and unstoppable!

[@ddrowdy7666]

It probably weighs as much as any 3 of the other cars combined.

[@nwvfd22]

This is dangerous and exciting to begin with,..... but a Reliant Robin series? My simple American mind is blown. Love it!

[@mistie710]

Reliant racing started many years ago at Mildenhall as one of the first true original formulas run by RDC but given the unusual nature of the cars and the way these races ran, many promotions took it up. Promotasport raced the formula at Arena Essex during the Firecracker one year as a replacement for one of the stock car formulas they used and it was so popular, well why not?

I was going to say the same thing. They almost look to good to total them. I am sure that they warn out and were like a trophy wife,no one said it was first place .

I’m led to believe one of the recent new tracks on wreckfest is a faithful recreation of this one.

[@harrisongrant8558]

This is basically what NASCAR was back in the 1940s and 1950s, and it was awesome. I love the brash, cheesy, graffiti-style graphics on these cars too. I wish we had this kind of stuff in the US (unless it exists and I just don't know the name for it), unfortunately it seems like this is really just a UK/Netherlands thing.

[@chilliconn071]

Always interesting to see what cars make it to these races. Never once thought I'd see a Rolls Royce but I guess banger racing is where cars go to go out in a blaze of fender ripping, metal crunching, fast paced glory.

[@mistie710]

Hardly the first time that rollers raced at Arena. There was one year when the meeting opened with and all Rolls race! But then that was the point of the Firecracker - we had some pretty unusual and pretty ancient cars destroyed for our audience's pleasure over the years. And even though Arena Essex is no longer with us, you can find similar meetings around the banger racing world to this day! - CJ PRI

so true!!!!

[@dullknowledge1576]

F1 isn’t boring and I do understand why you like this because it’s insane and stuff but you do realize how stupid and uneducated these “racecar drivers” are? Like they are like a sliver from death, they are basically trying to kill each other and when the day of death comes apron these drivers one day I will be happy so it will strike fear into all the banger racing drivers and kill the sport. And back to F1, IF YOU ACTUALLY FREAKING WATCH F1 YOU WILL UNDERSTAND OF JUST HOW ENTERTAINING IT IS, AND NOT THINK OF IT AS A “boring rich man sport” AND IN THIS SPORT YOU STILL HAVE TO HAVE A PRETTY BIG WAD OF MONEY TO ENTER IN THE COMPETITION, SO TRY IT BEFORE YOU SAY YOU DONT LIKE IT! GOOD DAY SIR!

@@dullknowledge1576 Do not feel offended! The truth is maybe between you two... This is way more exciting and I would pay to watch that.. F1 is too expensive to watch live, and in reality...
