Imagine how much oil has gone into that land over the years, whoever buys houses there will find nothing will grow in their garden 😂 And all those Fords dying virtually within eyesight of where they were born.
Sad to see another track been shut bet the large crowd was a good bye crowd other wise why close. So happy to had banger racing wen growing up in Dublin Ireland the old Santry track. Your favourite team driver smell of petrol clutch rubber can't beat it. So sad but they put on belting show tks for vid take care👍☘🇮🇪
Losing this speedway track is such a tragedy! The Hammers raced here from 1984 to 2018 when the stadium was sold off to developers after being on the list for a compulsory purchase order by the government. They want to build 2500 homes here, without any compensation for the speedway team to find a new home. Also, losing the motocross track, stock cars/bangers and the go-kart circuit too makes it even more tragic! :(. You can help protest the redevelopment of Arena Essex and join the fight for a new stadium by visiting thurrockhammers.com and following the link to a petition and objection letters. Thanks
ah yes another banger track being sold on to make way for new houses, kinda means that most ppl will now have to travel to get to a banger track, mind you mildenhall's one might be okay but only if they keep the noise down, kinda wonder if my firecracker 2000 vhs will be worth anything?
With the exception of specific events, the first car across the line wins, but in the Firecracker there is a special award which normally goes to whoever was the best driver of the race. One way of getting that would be to put in some good hits. The only exception would be in the event of all cars being stopped before the end of the race in which case the win goes to the last car running, which also applies to a Destruction Derby where the cars can ONLY win by crashing.
@@petelane5986 Probably not that long. The nearest estate was only built around the turn of the century, long after Arena Essex opened. That's assuming that this isn't just a troll, of course! - CJ, Crashnet
Banger racing is a hobby not there to make money, the cost of running a track with health and safety breathing down your neck is not worth it .... If you get offered a pretty penny for your land theres only one option.... banger racing will be dead in the next 5 years
R. I. P. Arena Essex one of the best banger, stock car and speedway tracks. It will never be forgotten

Sadly another track gone but then again the best days and material has gone too..
Is it?

Mildo is shite... couldn't get anywhere near the stadium for the pre 70.... not enough parking and no marshaling for available space😢
Tracks close because the land fetches a fortune to build houses on
Why are they closing down all the tracks? I did demolition derbies here in the states. I thought we were tough. We aint got shit on you guys!
RIP BANGER RACING , COVENTRY GONE , WIMBLEDON , GONE , NOW ARENA GONE :-(
So you get points if you hit another car? LOL this is crazy and pretty funny. Sorry to hear it's closed.
How do you determine who wins? Is it a race?
With the exception of specific events, the first car across the line wins, but in the Firecracker there is a special award which normally goes to whoever was the best driver of the race.

What was the cause of the heads gone moment from 331 any one know?
martynb8 That would be my question because they are looking for each other to destroy. Look at that infield shot lol
Why don’t all the racers get together and buy the track. With enough owners it would never shut down. Sell shares.
@16:08 shameless copyright breach!
wow keeping a lost art alive,hand sign painting in America it's all wraps or decals...hand painted race cars are no more
Should boxer be band for the infield shot
Why is this the last ever Firecracker race?? I'm new to this type of racing.. I love it!!
Track is closing victor
@@thedutchbangervideos4317 that's 😔. Thanks!!
No because it 331 get away with everything 😂
Loaded, but not banned it seems
331 attacking off the dirt.... that boy always was a cheating cnut
glad its shut down, now i can live in peace and quite in my house
For how long have you lived in your house?

Chick woodruff will turning in his grave. That man put a lot into that track 50 yrs ago. I know because I worked for him.
