Three-Car-Train-of-Death Racing
« on: November 10, 2014 - 09:58:04 PM »
Only in Canada !!!

In Three-Car-Train-of-Death Racing, three cars are towed together with
three foot chains. 1st car has steering and big engine, 2nd and 3rd
car only have brakes and steering.

Teams actually race against other competitors on a quarter mile oval track.


RMR: Train of Death


This could replace Nascar since it is going down.

I would like to see a full race..........
1970 AAR Cuda
1970 Gran Coupe Ragtop. 1 of 66
Gran Cpe Convertible 1 yr only.

" I Want to Ride "

" I tried to be normal once...
it was the most boring
2 minutes of my life!!!!"

Love it!  I feel sorry for the guy in the middle car getting whipped around because of his bad driving.  :smilielol:

That reporter needs to learn to stay off the brakes!  :scared:  It would be easier to control his car that way.  :screwy:

Yeah, we have train racing here too, except the center car doesn't have a driver.  Plus you should see them do figure eight racing with train racing.  :1zhelp:

We've had a similar thing here, called trailer racing. Things get pretty nuts.  :grinyes:
