The Isle of Man is a place that everyone should visit at least once. You have to go during the TT, and you have to take in all of the insanity surrounding the event. The people on the island don’t just love pushing around fast bikes though, as we discovered.
There is a small oval circuit on the Isle of Man, and it packs a substantial local crowd. The folks gather to watch their friends or family, and the racing action is excellent. We’re talking about Banger Racing, and it’s best viewed with a fresh plate of fish and chips and a cold brew from Okells in your hand.
Hit play, sit back, and take in the majesty that is Banger Racing on the Isle of Man.
(Also, we need to find a way to get some Hooniverse stickers on Hendo’s Lexus…)

When you said “banger”, I thought, “Is he talking about sausage?”
/bangers and mash
10/10. I love banger racing in the UK, except someone’s usually ending a poor Rover SD1’s life.
