  • the yanks have nothing on this :)

  • im a kiwi so i hate to say this but poms are doing it right! u got balls. id love to take apart in something like this

  • swaffham raceway was the best when trackstar was running it.

    

  • hundreds of classics wasted..

  • Wow!!!! Now that's a demo derby!!!!!

  • no one an i mean noone hits harder than the unlimited bois u can keep ure gay yanky demo derbys as a spectator sport u will neva beat the short oval

  • @broadside78 In America we don't put drivers in such perilous situations. We have demolition derbies, not banger racing. We go with our friends to drink some beer, which we can take coolers of, wreck some cars and have some fun. That fun doesn't include watching drivers (sometimes friends) get hauled off in an ambulance or hearse.

  • @freetickeys Though people do get injured (far less than if you was doin motorcross or similar) deaths are very rare. there has been only around six deaths in banger racing since the 60's, and hundreds of people race every weekend in the uk. these cars are well reinforced around the driver area, and it rarely gives way.

  • @gutz323 Some of the banger hits look almost unsurvivable. Obviously, the cars are mostly junkers and safety looks minimal to the casual observer. I'm glad to hear drivers aren't getting ground up like cheap beef. The guys who drive them must need extra material in the front of their underwear to accommodate their massive 'nads.

  • holy shit thats gonna hurt the next day

  • You guys aren't safe at all!

  • the main point of this racing "IF IN DOUGHT GO IN FLAT OUT"

  • all u american faggots ... id like to see u come to the track and say that these r pussy crashes... my brother could kill ur engine in seconds

  • So what is the main goal of this madness?

  • @91Indrek go in hard n if u survive go in hard again lool

  • my dad is on here :) go 771!!!!

  • at 1:57 even the Brits know how to grow a better mullet!

  • Comment removed

  • arr what my hits not on it

  • I want to do this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @dgod420 cost like 2 grand to get a car and a further 1 grand to comply it with the rules

  • damn this looks dangerous as hell, love it tho, don't do this with plastic modern cars !

  • That can't be healty for the drivers.

  • @cfirster think you must be dreaming ice hockey... canucks rule

  • @cifirster think you must be dreaming ice hockey... canucks rule

  • @cifirster think you must be dreaming ice hockey... canucks rule

  • The only reason these shows look so bad*** is because the cars are CRAP(x10) I could touch a peice of paper to it and it would dent!!! American cars are better, and it takes balls of steel to do both bangrs and demolition derby

  • @MaximumD2 you yanks are scared of a good crashing

  • this is gay, bangers are over rated

  • hahaha nice crashes some look pretty sore hahaha

  • when swaffham used to be swaffham. not like what it is now. trackstar should get it bk

  • loved swaffham and its sticky fence , orsum times

  • Non stop carnage nice one :)

  • i feel like playing burnout now from watching this xD

  • Oh my god. 0.44 Rover p4!! quite rare now (white)

  • This is just INSANE! Absolute blast to watch though!

  • Now this is how you fill the fuckin seats man. Fuck North American Derbys suck ass. Look at these crowds

  • @VancouverCanucksRock BRING YOUR 1500LB SHIT BOX TO AMERICA AND GET IN THE RING WE WILL END YOU COCKYNESS...LOL TUFF GUY IN A SHIT BOX HIGH ON PAINT FUMES

  • @CFIRSTER come 2 england mate and play wiv the big boys wiv that lip and i will build u a car and then will see your arsehole fool out we dnt fuck about mate you's yank dont crash u play bumper cars your just a pup

  • @CFIRSTER we dnt need 2 smash you because all the real entertainment is in britain you need to change your style over there and have a proper crash not just bumping in to the dick 2 foot away your shit m8 no talent no arsehole and all them big motors wot a waste of time and money you should send them 2 us and i will show you how 2 use it

  • lol why is it that all people at banger racing including the spectators they wear them high vis coats they must be the best selling coats out lol every 1 has 1

  • @DANATRINGWOOD For the driver, they're windproof, waterproof, warm and it reduces the chance of you getting run over when you get out. For the crowd.... Well.. Everyone thinks they're a racer :)

  • GREAT organized murder

  • 2:30 go on the NooN

  • holy crap!!! 6:20

  • this is why i hate crackers black power

  • some good memories here specially Shane Brown before he went to Stock Rods (was my fav racer).

  • and the point of this is ? Petrolheads are worse than rednecks

  • post and rail at swaffam does it get any better shame they got rid of it but could you see front wheel drives like mondeos etc getting followed in like that

  • i just love the follow ins!!!

  • love the song.and love the cars to.

  • 53 endless pileup

  • WHats the current song?

  • Man great action , thats what i call hard hits,have raced against some of the poms in nz , good guys they go out hard,they sure get some speed up on those hard sealed track, great stuff.

  • appropiate having a driving school as the advert!!!!

  • I'm not sure I really understand this kind of racing. Are there any rules? Do you get a better payout if you kill someone? Them boys got some serious stones. Cheers & God Speed

  • 6:22 wow that was sweet and nice song

  • 1:47 Typical Ford Capri, Chassis snapped at the pedals. Happened to my dads friend trapped and snapped both ankles and shins, Nasty. He had pins and a cage around his shins. Other than that he was ok.

  • its all goooooood

  • still think that pile up @ 51 was the best ever and has not been matched since some huge hits going in and no one backed of quality!! just wish i was there

  • someone is eventually going to die from one of those head on hits into the barrier..

  • @JosesDonkey2112 there sadly have been m8

  • we like to go in ard mate cause they like it up em

  • now dont get me wrong im a american and i like my demo derbys and enduros but what u guys do is crazy i mean most of thoses wrecks looks like u cant come back from it but i tell u what stop going and saying that americans suck because i seen a lot of fords chevys and outher AMERICAN cars but i do respect every form of racing ill hand it to ya u british fucks have balls that clank

  • @Hellbound666Spawn hahaha it's people like you that make UK and USA allies and keep the sports alivee and running just hope the koreans ( north and south) can sort they're problems before world war 3 happens and we will all probably die from nukes

  • @Hellbound666Spawn American derby is awsome mate you guys spend along time building a car to win plus you still take big hits!. I dont know why people insult the usa. Our cars fold up alot easyer in some of the hits because we are only aloud to strengthen the drivers compartment. Youre trying to win a lapped race so you get less time on the track and a lower chance of survival lol. Its like american football is more violent than rugby and bangers is a little more aggressive than demo derbys.

  • @Hellbound666Spawn its the way we build them.... would love for a couple of you americans to come over to the uk and have a go at this.. we do it with some of your yank tanks as well.. look up firecracker on youtube you may get a shock

  • @Hellbound666Spawn You should see New Zealand Stockcars.... watch?v=MpMsnImLOYI

  • Oh my god. I didn't even know cars could get screwed up that badly in a race. Maybe getting dropped from a crane or out of an airplane or from space but not in a race. This makes demolition derbies look like something that doesn't involve big crashes.

  • Swaffham Raceway at its best, wires and posts! The way banger racing should be. I used to love the Icebreaker when it was there.

  • jehfo did at a meeting coz that was my mate and the jag was a stockcar thats how much wellding it had in it and he dont cear about it and them metings where gd in them days look at now

  • Why is it they never have banger racing like this at Skeggy Stadium whenever I go ?? Always some crappy fwd stock rods, maybe some 2litre stock cars and maybe if your lucky a couple of caravans in a demo derby to finish :(

    Cant remember the last time I saw action like this show in the vid here, lovely vid thanks mate.

  • NOW THAT IS HOW TO DO IT!!!

  • why do bitches always have to make gay ass rules people die everyday, people are born every day. These ppl know what they are doing.

  • btw none of these people actually died few injuries maybe but no deaths

  • how many people died in those clips?

  • none.

  • Belive it or not banger racing is quite safe, and i dont think anyones died in a banger

  • Some have.

  • 1 person did

    but he was in a ford escort and he got followed in by a jag

    :(

  • :o The pink car is my Grandmother! She is Famous!

  • i was schau wos i moch waun i a oida auto hob^^

  • they were the good old days ;

    big yanks and

    big hits !

  • I'm still trying to figure out whatever rules you guys have for this and what you're allowed to do to a car for anykind of bracing.Also how many guys have gotten hurt or killed..

  • you can weld the drivers door up for protection, and use plates to keep the doors shut!

    been only a few fatal crashes to be honest!

  • that jacking train from the earthshaker was sick . they need to get unlimited bangers back at swaffham

  • Hello this is a good video. Dont forget to check out my banger racing videos by clicking on my account name.

  • ooh nasty! See those f*ckin yanks think they are hardcore smashing up like 3 tonne caddys in a small mud pit, we brits crash shit rusty austins and grannie and have like 20 strong jacking trains and get out wantin more!! great vid!

  • 4:40-Trackstar vs Smallfield, that were a good meetin. Smallfield n Proud!!!!!

  • lewis there is no way them redneck yanks are goin to come over here n race now lol epic vid mate(Y)

  • woooooooo CRASHES :D

    only problem is whats with the music i mean its better that alot of the others with pure rubbish for music but crashes its not just sight its sound as well the sound of crashing and crumpling metal brakeing bone ect ect

  • Oh my good Lord! There must be serious injuries reasonable often in this type of racing.

  • not realy mate! iv raced for 10 years and only ever broke my arm! no other injurys

  • Wow that's amazing considering how bad some of these crashes look, I've seen people killed on public roads in far less spectacular crashes, and these cars are pretty well stock aren't they?

  • That was by far the best wrecks video I've seen. The person at 4:54 gets F~(ked UP.

  • great taste in music - paradise city by gnr fuckin great song

  • love the wreck at 1:19

  • that yellow car is just ass paking other ppl lol!!!!

  • those people like to put people in the wall dont they??!?!

  • Simply mad. great to watch

  • true redneck racing! THATS WHY ITS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

  • these old swaffham crashes would have the heath and safety board shitting in there boots these days!!!!

  • So it isn't... My bad. I was told informed that 2007 was going to be its last year of racing. Good to hear that its still going. Although it's still in trouble apparently.

  • i heard the same story

  • Lol so I'm not just going crazy then...

  • lol sure not

  • i belive its open for the rest pof this season then i dunno wats happening

  • Nice Video. I was Right there on the fence when the yank took that post out at Firecracker. Almost got a bolt through my head! Shame Arena Essex is gone now, redeveloped for flats or something. In my opinion it was the best track with the best racers. No fatalities (as far as I'm aware) and a good catch fence (from Donington I think). Yes Banger racing is dangerous, but all sports are - fir spectators as well. There are guidelines in place and they do work, Arena Essex was proof of that.

  • arena essex is still open...

  • i have found a video for you kwlkelmwah the videos called pikeys big blockbuster follow-in enjoy.

  • a solemn silence for all those who were KIA here at the races, i hope that they are now in a good place, and are still racing their dreams in heaven.

  • they really like to kill each other

  • to some comments further down

    i thought it was only 2 drivers that had died in races

    but who where there others as it seems a bit unfair to forget these drivers that sadly lost their lives?

    R.I.P :(

    brilliant video tho

    hopin to start soon :D

  • if anybody has got a video of 190 steve bailey plz leave a comment on dis video thnx ppl

  • banger racing is just pure class ive raced once and omg its just a pure buzz i dint last long in the race but it was amazing

  • More or less u'll the classic cars have been scraped for years lol gives them a last chance tae been seen rather thn rotting away in a scarp pile lol but i'd have to be aff yer heed to used a fully restored classic in a ranger race lol

  • Gotta respect these guys, they have balls...but it's sad when old classics are wrecked in these events. I mean, there are plenty of 80s and 90s bangers around, why use classics?

  • is that a granny coupe going in at 1.46, tut tut tut

  • wot a song for this video well picked pal n great vid

  • paradise city by guns n roses

  • rip swaffam

  • Jeez, I can remember some of those drivers were about when I was racing. Nice to know that they're still mixing it!!!!

  • Excellent video! We were sitting by the fence right where the limo was followed in at Firecraker (at the end of the clip) only seen photos before so it's great to see it again, we sat there and the limo's sump just kept getting closer and closer, mega! well done!!

  • Jeez, can't believe how hard some of these hits are. I can't imagine what it's like being sat in your car knowing that someone'll hit you at up to 50mph and that it's probably even more dangerous to get out. Saw a guy knocked out cold at Cowdenbeath back in '90 - and he got no help. Not nice.

  • old swaffam simply the best shame

  • Crazy mofo's :P

    I like the crashes when someone is pushing the other and can't get away anymore.

  • Crazy mofo's :P

    Like the crashes when someone is pushing the other and can't get away anymore.

  • it's dangerous, but, THIS AWESOME

  • in my city, one guy die, when he hit a car, your car blow up, and the seatbelts was block, the guy burn it up, I was there, was horrible

  • its the first crash starts about 15 seconds in

  • garry madgwick following that hurst in at the 98 icebreaker thats in this clip hurt the driver big time

    i was stood on that corner and watched him get carried away spitting blood out with 2 broken legs

    ive seen harder hits but the hurst was a cut and shut and folded like a beer can

  • its about 20 seconds in to the clip

  • what part of the video is that in?

  • does anybody know why the A60 is in with the transit vans ? that post snapping yank is awesome too!!!

  • it isnt an a60 its a westy, and its in there because i think they ran a meeting of run wat ya brung...or it might of been vans vs british tin

  • they used to do an unlimited banger meeting with vans and classics.

  • Noticed what looked like a few American cars in the video. How do they typically stack up in competition compared to English or European model cars?

  • @dmriebe There too slow on the straights to catch our grannys and jags but they make for excellent crashing when you get the speed up

  • No Lewis I am not including Skeefy or Polo. Drivers have died in the last 15 years or so in crashes at Alwarton, Swaffham, Birmingham, Crewe, Bovingdon and on one of the dirt tracks down in the south west.

  • ok can we move off that subject now

  • simply awesome stuff - its a shame swaffham now has an armco instead of the post and wire fence. Those were the days! by the way what meeting was that incredible wreckage train from. the one at the 00:53 sec mark?

  • it says on the case 1999 earthshaker

  • 1998 icebreaker

  • from the earth shaker in 98 i think possibly 99

  • oh well im sorry i dont no exactly how many drivers have died. are you including the racers who died not on the track, like mark boulden and terry skeef, they were good drivers but lost there lifes not on the track. R.I.P to them great drivers

  • Wrong, there have been 5 drivers killed on the track that I know of for definite since the start of the 90's, plus another with brain damage after a length of the straight T-bone. You should not gloss over the dangers because they are real, and made worse by people who think that there's no such thing as a hit that is too hard.

  • yes that is true my mate jonsey 407 was seriously hurt at a speedworth v mindenhall meeting up yarmouth ended up in a coma for a few weeks.

  • Just out of curiosity, has anyone been killed doing this sort of racing? Seems almost suicidal/homicidal to be pile driving these guys into the walls and deliberatly going head on as fast as you can into someone. All in all, one awesome video. Well done. Wish I had gone to one of these when I lived in the UK.

  • in the history of banger racing, i think only 2 people have died in a banger race, a few more drivers have died but they have been due to different curcomstances. i must say banger racing is alot better than any of that american Demolition derby pants lol.

  • some of those follow ins are nuts!! surely there are some sort of rules saying just how quick you can go into them?

  • I actually find that song fits it so much better! What is it, by the way?

  • Its Paradise City by Guns and Roses
