Cool car, but not as relevant as...  It an old picture, of and old banger, at a classic car show, sometime in the '80's. I could say lots, but most of its already been said. |

I've resisted the temptation to comment...buttttt
I've gone to countless shows over the years in modded cars, some old guy will always come up and say what have you done you've ruined it!!
Because it's either lowered or brightly painted
We like modded cars some don't
Banger racers like banger racing some don't
No problem with me I've bought many spares of racer mates, and there not bad people...I've met worse in the classic car scene tbh
One "top bloke " in a certain ford owners club wandering around an autojumble comes to mind
I watched this bloke buy a steering wheel in the jumble then witness the said lowlife laughing after selling it to a fellow member on his club stand for a big profit later in the day,,,that's a thief to me....modifying cars has been around many years and so has banger racing I personally have no
Problem with it

We should also remember that smashing stuff is fun.

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary. |

Its a new game in developmetment called Wreckfest, as standard its pretty good with mainly american cars and a couple of euros, but the picture shows it with the Uk Bangers mod. All sorts of Granadas, jags, VP 4litreR, volvos, old nissans, more yanks, Merc limo etc etc, with still more to come. Plenty of it on youtube. You'll need Steam, Wreckfest, then the mods.Tracks include wimbledon, ringwood, swaffham, taunton, standlake. Be careful though, its addictive, in fact thats where I'm going right now, to play it online. Smashing stuff can be fun.

Well..... my two bits worth...
I hate to see old classics being destroyed... end off.
I don't like banger racing... end off.
However, I absolutely adore classic hot rod racing. The sight of bubble arched mk1's and forest arched mk2's charging around an oval is fantastic. The cars are beautifully prepared and only sustain minor damage (most of the time) as it's supposed to be non contact.
I also love watching stock rods and f2's etc. I happen to like proper racing. I personally don't like carnage.
