Default Mental driving from the BTCC

A short clip of a huge battle between two Toyotas at Silverstone from 1987. Sorry about the quality.

I'm watching some season reviews from the early 90's and some of the stuff they did was mental. Check out the last race (the one where Harvey won his BTCC Championship) of '92.....

All this time and they still have added the Y into the name "British Trash Your Car Championship" as it has turned into over the years

But the insanity is what makes BTCC my favorite racing to watch. There are more prestigious championships; higher paying ones; more glamorous; faster; and there are championships with bigger names too BUT there are none that are more fun to watch!

If you're looking for best overtake here's number one (but it's not from BTCC)
