Racing takes its toll on engines

At some meetings there are also special feature races such as:
- Combine harvesters.
- Demolition Derby.
- Hare and hounds (bangers chase another banger towing a caravan, and the winner is the first banger to end up inside the caravan and stay there for one lap).
- Vans.
- Three-wheelers (Reliant Robins).
- Bus and coach demolition (about as spectacular as you can get, but very messy, so they don't tend to happen very often).
