Banger World Final 1989

As far as world final races go - this is one of the best and most dramatic with 323 Waspy being influential and having his XJ well damaged, some interesting action on the Wimbledon shale.

713 Tim Coates won, although 323 nearly made it a different result.

This was the year 33 Simon Reed raced the 1st Jaguar XJ6 Series 3. Material wise it is mostly MK1 Granadas with a fair few XJs and the newly available, modern MK2 Granada having a few out. Also of note is 251 Roger Harper's Daimler DS420 Limo and 176 Tiny's DS420 hearse which caused a stir at the time and were among the first to be raced on a banger track.

Some great interviews with drivers of the time. 91 Jimmy Moyse was wrongly excluded from the WF race for being equal on points with another driver and handed in his Spedeworth licence.

A great DVD with lots of action - a must for the banger fan when bangers folded up and were good.
