Groupon Asks Steven Rees of Startrax about the the experience of watching stock car racing.

G: What makes the races special?

"Stock car racing is like watching gladiators in an arena. It's an amazingly brash and colourful experience, and offers a display of deft driving skills with full-contact action. Banger racing, on the other hand, delivers awesome destruction, and is about surviving the carnage."

G: Describe the experience of watching stock car racing.

"An audience comprised of families, dedicated fans and teams watch on as racers engage in high speeds and full-on contact. Spectators can get up close to the cars and drivers, talk to them and take pictures; there's an informal atmosphere, and drivers love meeting fans."

G: Do you have any personal experience in racing?

"I raced Big League BriSCA F1 for many years, and more latterly banger racing, until common sense and age took over and I became a promoter. For me, it's the best job on the planet; it's completely adrenaline-fuelled."
