Van Banger Racing 1977

[@peskyparttimers8239]

Good to see some banger racing from the days when monster follow ins, full length of the straight hits on dead cars and drivers seamingly intent on actually killing each other wasn't a thing.

Totally agree well said . . . Like everything now . . Spoilt

[@Fcutdlady]

Am i the only one who thinks raming avoidable dead vehicles is for amateurs . (I know not every dead vehicle is avoidable) Where real skills lie is a vehicle taking out and crashing into another moving vehicle . Whats the point in crashing and knocking yourself out of the competition . In demolition derby the idea is to be the last vehicle running

and no turning round anyone can turn round, wait and then drive out on a passing car or give it a head on.

Majority of them worth a fortune today if we only knew then we'll done guys lv it

[@nickjervis8123]

I wish they'd all been parked in my yard before the race

[@Fcutdlady]

I helped a friend preserve old buses . I've heard from him some really good lessons in you can't preserve them all . I'd rather them die a running death in a banger race then just sit in a scrapyard for years until they meet they guy with the gas axe or the crusher operator .

@@Fcutdlady still racing classics today WTF? Im looking for a cheap classic but up against bangers with money, premises and their kids doing it trawling ebay FB etc. The main reasons: Because we can Get yur money out and your excuses. I used to watch banger racing when these vehicles were plenty full. Much harder to do one up you love over time than get the electric glue out and stuff a pinto and frame in. Bollox to that hope all the tracks get built on lol. Own and run classics and make the remaining ones more valuable ? More bollox who talks like that

[@TheGreatest1974]

People would give their right arms for these Anglia and Morris vans today.
