A few questions. What makes them stock?
What are they powered by?
What the heck is that contraption over the right front wheel?
They must play rough by the looks of all the body armor they carry. Is it auto racing for the hockey fan.

FROM THE GUY THAT POSTED THE THANK YOU NOTE ON AN EARLIER POST
The link above should show the cars we watch back home. They are a bit of a cross betwen a dirt modified and a sprint car . They are a lot heavier than a sprint, have no limit on engine size but are restricted to much smaller Goodyear tires. Oh, and it's a contact game, so the drivers can push each other out of the way to get to the front. A little like the Trophy Cup here, the fast guys always start at the back, hence the need to push other cars out of the way. It tends to be lively!

I'm impressed. These guys are all trying to get to the front. It is amazing how few yellows are thrown when you have starters, clutches and battering rams.
