It's a great race to see in person! I have shot the race and it was a blast. I would be along the wall in the middle of turn one and two just past the flag stand. Once got a series of a car going around the entire figure 8 on fire and the driver didn't know it was on fire.
"He's not weighing as much as he did at the start of this race..." LMAO If that's not the greatest way I've ever heard somebody say "that guy just s#!+ his pants!"
Too bad they don't use a drone with wide angle camera handing over the middle of the track in the air to cover the entire field and give us, the viewers the great experience :)
@@dalton5903 I think the definition of professional applies here, especially if they get paid for it. I'd also say these drivers are (significantly?) more skilled, on average, compared to a demolition figure 8 race competition group of drivers.
@@PlanetXtreme In the small town dirt or asphalt racing scene, Nascar is the only kind of racing that you'll hear classified as professional. Anybody can get one of these cars and or have it legally built and registered to race in one day. Theres no prestige in small town racing like this. Anyone can do it, but not just anyone could do Nascar. This is coming from someone who loves small town racing like this. (I'm a racing photographer for these kind of races.) If you wanna see the next best thing to Nascar that is considered as Professional, watch super late model racing, Or USMTS mod racing. Not every driver will make it to those big classes, but anyone could race in a figure 8 race. I believe you will absolutely be able to participate in a figure eight race. because its not real pro racing like nascar, it's not professional. It might as well be called a glorified demo derby.
Don't these drivers ever give a road sign? It's an invitation to have a trafffic accident. This driving would not be tolerated here in England. Mind you, Iove it and do admire their skill and guts.; Regards to all viewers. March, 2023.
