Backwards Drag Racing Is Our New Favourite Motorsport

Oh man, this is all backwards!

I live two towns over from here and go every time they have Day of Destruction. Next one is coming up so if you want me to post some videos of it, let me know. Backwards Drag isn’t the only thing they have there either. There are Ramp Races sometimes and races around a tire. Same premise for both. Point to point on the front stretch with 4 cars facing off. Winner continues and losers don’t. The ones around the tire are fun to watch because it ends up having lots of t-bones and head on collisions. Watched a car last time lose it back bumper while another used it as a ramp shortly after. Its a very entertaining afternoon for only $5 a person.

Kilgore Trout this is so you haha

I think we should call it “French Racing”… You know - French World War vehicles had 5 gears for reverse and 1 to drive forward :)

National sport of the dutch in the 70’s together with caravan racing

So this is where all the Cash for Clunkers cars went.

It bothers me that you spelled it “favourite” instead of “favorite” in an article about something this American…

Would it be cheating to put this in a forward gear? nobody would ever know

You know this started with 2 rednecks said “Hey, hold our beers”
