1975 production car race
Race fans brought their street cars to race. Zero safety equipment-- just check out the guy with the Mustang convertible. I think Ralph Nader's head just exploded.

Awesome stuff, I so wish they'd still do this. Honestly, I'd much rather watch 100% original cars straight from the showroom race against eachother than F1, WRC or anything else.
@Edvin: It is car racing at its most basic. But that looks really dangerous.
I'm cringing but can't stop watching, the lack of roll-cages, helmets, etc. as they tip gently into those turns ...
More stuff like this. Track days on the Nürburgring back in 1970.

@Edvin: Reminds me of Senna's performance in Spa last weekend.
I was fascinated and repelled at the same time. A large GM coupe crashes in the wall and the response is, " ah hell with it...leave it there". A guy driving a Mustang convertible with no roll cage/helmet.
