Video: Backwards drag racing is the best form of chaos
OK, you’re telling us you’ve seen everything, but we’re willing to bet you probably haven’t seen this. Welcome to the quite magnificent world of backwards drag racing, which looks to be a beautiful spin-off of banger racing.
There don’t appear to be any rules to speak of– aside from the first driver over the line wins and the whole going backwards thing – and that’s just as well because we imagine trying to keep this bunch of utter lunatics on the straight and narrow is probably an impossible task.
So instead of asking questions, we’re just enjoying the show, as a mish-mash of vans, pick-ups and classic saloons get thrown around the Beech Ridge Motor Speedway. The chaos begins from the moment the flag drops for the first time, and that tone remains throughout. This a properly good-value ten minutes of feet-up entertainment.
Welcome to Goodwood Elevenses, a mid-morning helping of motoring-related amusement to help break up your day. Watch the last video: This is Gobstopper 3 and it hates lap records
