The Bangers as the name suggests is a full contact, crushing formula. This is the last stop on the line that leads to the car crusher for somebody's one-time pride and joy, which has just failed the dreaded MOT test.

Needless to say this formula is not only a contact formula but it is actively encouraged, the big cars like Ford Granada's and Jaguars are the preferred weapons, for the action, at times can be very heavy. Destroying the opposition is often the preferred objective than actually winning the race you've just entered.

The name Bangers, lends itself to many types of automobile, as you can see in a number of these pictures, Reliant Robins, Big Vans, figure of 8, team racing and even caravans all get a chance. Whilst the capacity limits on a number of the meetings throughout the season give the chance for the smaller fry to perform without getting their prize blitzed by the big stuff!

The biggest night of the year goes to Wimbledon Stadium, where the traditional Banger World Final takes place at the Plough Lane venue. This event often outstrips the others, especially when it cones to spectators, where signs are often seen saying "House Full" hanging from the gates!
