Mendip Raceway Banger racing

Post by Eric_M »

Went to Mendip racing last weekend and only just got the photos off the camera.
What an awesome day though :)
Stock cars, bangers and Robin racing all round a tiny narrow track about 10' from the crowd made for a very intense day.
All of us looked like chimney sweeps by the end of the day because we were covered in rubber and stank of petrol, burnt rubber and oil.
There were some utter nutters there and I can't recommend banger racing highly enough for anyone who has never been :)

All part of the experience!

Robin Reliant racing... lol

Image
Yes of course they fall over!

Image
And explode when they hit each other!

Image
The bangers were insane... well the drivers were anyway... proper nut jobs.

Enormous pile up that took out all but one car - meaning no destruction derby because there was nothing left to run.

Image
The one car that was left got T-boned by this moron in Jag91 who wasn't even in the race and just drove across the center hitting the winning car at high speed and pinning him to the wall - shocked was an understatement.

If they ever hold a caravan race make sure you go and see that. Honestly the best ten minutes of racing you will see.
