    Brilliant to have you over for our world final.
    You looked more and more confident as the world final race went on.
    Amazing for Tom Harris to give so much of his time to get you comfortable and help with your set up in his big meeting.
    And even better that he won his 5th world title, and boy was he fast in the sprint car 👌

    Hey Tmez thanks for posting your impression of the UK Stock Car. I live in the UK, but work in 🇺🇸. Love to watch all the different formulas of Sprint Cars in the US and Stock Cars in the UK. You have now experienced UK Stock Car racing and I’m sure you will agree that it is awesome. We need more guys like you here in the UK. The social media side of things here in the UK is severely lacking. Good luck with all your future ventures. “These guys drive the wrong way” You Americans…😅😅😅

      Well, as an Australian Sprintcar Fan, and a big fan of Tmez, from the outside looking in, these cars and this kind of racing would be a little familiar to him, as it looks almost exactly the same as the Stock Car racing in New Zealand, only, they do it PROPERLY by which I mean they do it on the dirt and they go "the right way" around the track!!

    • @calvinlewis7200

      UK stock cars do it on dirt too and go the same way as NZ superstox, a uk driver has even won the world 240 champs in NZ 3 times! that’s how good these drivers are.

If you can get past the beating, banging and "circus act," then it's pretty amazing how they, especially the modifieds, get around that small flat track. There's some awesome racing there if you look for it.

    I like how your totally outside of your comfort zone but also embracing it. Contact racing is a different beast for sure, the cars in New Zealand are another step contact wise to the UK, far more rigid. After you have been doing it for a while you hardly feel the pushes out of the way and you know when you do feel it, it was indeed pretty big.

    You should check out banger racing as well tmez we go the same way as the saloons but with a stripped out road car with a cage, door plate and other safety equipment. It's similar to your demolition derby cars except no amouring and its oval racing but full contact so you could literally hit a opponent flat out and wreck their car. If you would like to check it out I'd recommend Short Oval Racing UK on TH-cam they also recorded this Brisca F1 World Final. Or my on-board footage. We loved having you here mate😁🏁

      where are you from? to say its lame can only be from someone who never has seen that in person. Hope you are from US. If talking about lame.. go watch your Demo Derbys.. nothing more lame than that against UK Banger racing. Maybe it looks lame cause the tracks are way smaller than the US ones so the speed seems slow but let me tell you.. for that little tracks they are pretty fast
