R. I. P. Arena Essex one of the best banger, stock car and speedway tracks. It will never be forgotten

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👍☘🇮🇪

Nemesis on track with the fire extinguisher whilst they're still racing haha

good old school banger racing hard hits big motors amazing day out nice to see the west country boys getting stuck in good show lads

Another rated vid as allways sj glad you made it there too, see you on thr 1st at ringwood

Imagine how much oil has gone into that land over the years, whoever buys houses there will find nothing will grow in their garden 😂

the good old days

Whatever happens, don't let them take banger race away from all of you guys!!

Boxer Jack making his own rules 👍

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! :(.

R.I.P arena Essex I went there so many times fare well

Excellent video Jake :)

Car 331=mental 👍🏻🏆👍🏻

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

Thanx guys great

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,

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!

How do you determine who wins? Is it a race?

What was the cause of the heads gone moment from 331 any one know?
