Just wanted to tell you a bit about my favourite sport, which is banger racing. I don't know if you've heard of it but the general idea is that 25-60+ Cars race around a track, either aiming to win the race or smash the other drivers cars up. The engine CC sizes range from 1200 cc (vauxhall astra e.t.c) to Unlimited CC (Limo's, Hearses e.t.c). On numerous occasions cars have been raced that were the only ones in the country. The oldest and rarest car raced to date is a 1928 Dodge Standard Six. My favourite driver would have to be #33! Simon Reed a.k.a The Legend because he always turns out great cars and just smashes other cars for the heck of it. Here's some video links.

And for those who feel sorry for those classic cars, they were beyond restoration, so they might as well have one last chance!

Those classics were beyond restoration anyway, give 'em one last chance!

No, because the cars they race in 24 hours of lemons are destined for the scrapyard, and are referred to a 'Lemons' Sometimes. They are rust buckets, basically

Nothing is beyond restoration. As long as you have the money and/or knowledge. 8)
