This race is absolutely balls out one of the more insane things you can do.

Be warned, there's a couple of bad wrecks as well.

Holy crap! That is fast as hell!

I watch it every year. I simply can't get enough.
Balls of steel? Pffft! More like adamantium.

It makes Nascar looks like a shopping cart race.

I keep waiting on Connor Cummings to get his frickin' win. He's got the record for fastest lap from a standing start so he's got the skills but he just keeps having mechanical spooks + a nasty crashout.
If nothing else its worth watching the races just to play my wife's favorite game: "WTF did Guy Martin just say?"

I haven't seen all of this year yet so PLEASE no spoilers.

I have always wanted to go there to race. That is by far 100% my #1 on the bucket list.

It is old school racing. Shut down the roads and lets do this. I love it.
