History of Banger Racing Teams, Rules and News

History of Banger Racing Teams, Rules and News

October 8, 2024 By Live Sports

One of the unique motorsports in the world is banger racing. It originated in Australia when competitors took old cars that had been crashed or wrecked in car accidents and modified them for competition. Banger racing is still popular in Australia, and England, with events taking place at various circuits throughout the country.

The tracks are often extremely short with tight turns, making it difficult to drive fast without crashing due to a lack of space to maneuver.

The Racing bikes also have no side panels, which allow them to be easily repaired by a technician.
