These are called superstocks the are 1.4 ton fully steel cars with v8s in them the class is allowed full contact these were normal races but we also have teams racing this driver is from the uk and the nz lads didn't want him to win so they are allowed to block and even roll him to stop him within the rules

as an extra to what @Racing_trackside has said. theres a full list of racing rules for the class, but the contact is encouraged and is often used to either make sure someone who is higher on points than a friend does not finish well - or at all.... These are expensive machines - some reaching over 100 thousand dollars each.. and they can be almost destroyed in just a few laps during one race - then repaired, sometimes in under an hour to make the next race.

What makes u say that

@@Racing_trackside because there is no skill needed, it is not good racing.

@ashleyshipp8340 this is called teams Champs 4v4 battle it out to get their team across the line first full contact class We do race these normally too

@@Racing_trackside Cool you enjoy.

Thank you

it's called superstock teams racing in New Zealand, there are 5 cars per team and a sixth driver 4 cars on the track at a time most teams will do 2 runners and 2 blockers the runners try to complete all 12 laps first meanwhile to blockers try to stop the opposing team's runners to get their team to get the win.

@@Alexspeedway Expensive

@@billoddiea yeah

Thank you

All over new Zealand

100% agree first time Frankie has ever had a camera in for teams Champs feels cool being the first person

4.0L v8s, usually either a 1UZ Toyota, VH41 Nissan or VK56 Nissan engine, 240s is a reference to 240 cubic inches

Yes lots these are superstocks it's a full contact allowed sport and this was a race for the final Frankie was 3rd on points and from the uk the nz boys were trying to stop him getting 3rd

@@Racing_trackside He had also run his mouth during an interview just before the race and pissed off a few people who wouldve let him go for the gold otherwise lol.

Yeah! Turned almost completely inside out.

Pretty sure it's just a v8toyota vvti with an 8 into 1 exhaust

"Current Speedway New Zealand rules stipulate the engine must be no larger the 248 cubic inches, with teams using small block V8 race engines. The estimated power output figure is around 500hp. Most cars tend to run: Toyota VVTI V8 Nissan VK56 V8 Nissan VH41 V8 Ford V8 Chevrolet V8 Jaguar Cars V8"

He had a left rear that blew and the rubber was hitting the exhaust cover and made it come lose then off at the end

If the frame is intact these cars keep racing. Blown tyre? keep going Wheel came off? keep going Suspension collapsed or come loose? keep going In regular racing if a car rolls over it goes to the infield, in team racing if the car rolls over and lands back on its wheels without assistance and no frame damage.....you guessed it, keep going. They will drive these cars until they cant drive anymore, be towed off by a tractor, go into the pits fix them and come out next race.

Glad you enjoyed it

That's the point of a teams race

You defently have to in Form yourself about the aim of teamraces. I am from Germany and only fermiliar with shorttrack speedwayraces. Took me a while to get into this.......but it is defenetly worth it. So much more fun to watch.......it is like chess with incredible expensive racecars. Check out the "British Lions"......this year they appeared with two Dutch Drivers that I knew from our hometracks. That was awesome

They are called superstocks they are full steel chassis full and weight dont quote me over a ton contact is allowed and they run toyota v8s or Nissan v8s

1400kg to 1500kg no more than 248ci. Buick, Ford, chev,Toyota and Nissan brands have been or are used. The Toyota 1UZ is relatively cheep and definitely can do the work!

This seriously made me cry laughing 😂
