He created Banger Racing in the early 1950’s. Banger Racing is where cars race around a track for a designated number of laps However in bang events drivers attempt to disable one another by crashing into opponents or running them of the track. In 1946 Don Basile participated in a full contact race among four drivers at Carroll Speedway in Gardena, California. Following his 1946 event he went on to become a successful promoter of demolition derby for the next five decades (PBS). Don had two broken ribs and he still got in his demolition derby car and got first place that night, with two broken ribs.

It was 2001 in Nashville, Tennessee when 32 year old Kenny Kiser had just finished driving for the day and decided to make a stop. He went to a gas station and fueled, then found the nearest truck stop. Exhausted from the day, he finally stopped and climbed into the back of the cab of his semi to rest. Tuning into the Daytona race, which was broadcasted on one of the few local stations that he could get, he sat watching the duration of the race. Then tragedy struck.

The story of the pinewood derby starts with Don Murphy, Cub Master for Pack 280C in 1953. Don Murphy wanted to create a new father-son Cub Scout activity he could do with his 10 year old son who was too young to race in the Soap Box Derby. Don and several of the Cub Scout Pack Committee members, who were skilled with wood working and electricity, set about building a two lane 31 foot race track complete with a battery powered finish gate made from door bells and switches that would light a red or white light bulb to indicate which car won the heat. Murphy decided the car kit should consist of a 7 3/8 " block of pine wood with small wooden struts that would hold the axles. The "axles" , were nothing more than finish nails.

Charles Howard, Seabiscuit’s owner, would have never imagined that he would invest in horses and race them, because of his occupation as owner of a car business in San Francisco. His love and passion for cars died when his son, Frankie, tragically died while driving a truck. After that day, Charles

Not only did Red, Seabiscuit’s favorite jockey, face physical problems, he also faced people that believed he shouldn’t be riding Seabiscuit. If Red were to not compete because of his injuries he would not be able to make a living, so he rode despite whatever anyone else

This was caused after his crash attempting to beat Jean Gerard. An example of this being his test is him returning to the track to make some practice runs. While during his practice laps he did not go faster than

He didn’t finish first place in every event, but has made many top five finishes during his first year in 2005.

He had signed on Subaru as his main car brand for the years 2006-2010. Near the end of his World Rally Championship event, he had switched to Ford as his main group.

ARMAND, uncharacteristically leaning against the wall casually. “Over five hundred years I’ve been alive, David, and never have I ever stopped to acknowledge all that I have done during my years until tonight. But that doesn’t mean that I am not aware of my age, of the years that I have spent on this earth. I told you my story, how I began and what happened after. You know practically all that I have done─the condensed version, at least.

First off, we commenced our long trip with a very long drive. The drive was twenty hours, which is forty hours total if you include the drive back. Unfortunately, I tend to get very nauseous on road trips, so as you can imagine that was not the way I wanted to start off the trip. Although, we did go through Kentucky, so we stopped by the Kentucky Derby Museum. This was five years ago, so I don’t really remember this very well.

Candy wrappers were in the floor, old water bottles still in the cupholders, and jackets, basketballs, and bags piled in the back. It didn’t matter though because we were about to have the time of our lives. The first hour was boring as always. It was boring mostly because there was no new roads to drive or sights to see. It was along first hour, too.

This would be the best Spring break ever! We arrived at the hotel. It was about 100 stories and looked like it had jumped straight out a resort advertisement. The hotel had amazing architecture, which included a gold exterior and white detailing. A bellboy greeted us with drinks and a cart for our bags.

A loud cry broke out somewhere in the line. It was one of the hottest days that I had ever experienced, and it seemed like all of the children in Jurassic World had amassed in the line for the Gentle Giants Petting Zoo. It wasn't my fault that the petting zoo had a body limit, but all the annoyed and tired parents were blaming me for it. Nevertheless, I managed to keep a smile plastered on my face and keep my cool while talking to the angry people.

The company was formed to engage in the operation of long distance motor coach tours, with a particular emphasis on employing ex service men and women, and war widows. The RSL publicly placed their support behind the enterprise, and praised Aussie’s further policy of preference for the en route provision of tourists’ meals and accommodation from businesses run by ex service people. The late 1940’s saw the company plying the many routes throughout south eastern Australia for which it had gained licenses, from the Great Ocean Road and the Murray Valley to The Grampians, Lakes Entrance and Mt Buffalo. There were plans to greatly extend the company’s route network, which by the beginning of the 1950’s saw extended round tours being conducted into NSW, South Australia and Queensland, with

Every chance I got I would ride. Once I grew out of a 70 I got an 80. The 80 had more power, was faster and had a clutch. The
