    what is it then? :D yes, they started as a modernized attempt at car forum, but that failed, now they are more for cross posting spam content from other places.

    THESE RICH GENTLEMEN RACERS HAVE FAR TOO MUCH MONEY AND NOT ENOUGH DRIVING SKILL

    The world of motorsport can be a tricky place to assert yourself unless you have some serious cash to back your talent up. There's been talk of a Clio Cup season costing around £500,000 - and that's if you've been racing racing fairly cleanly.

    These guys competing in the Ferrari Challenge series however are obviously not short of a penny or two and - judging by some of their on-track behaviour - one thing they sadly haven't invested in is driver training.

    Although these guys may be classed as 'gentlemen racers', their behaviour on track is anything but gentlemanly, with blatant body contact that leads to unnecessary crashes throughout. Even BTCC racing seems docile compared to this bunch of testosterone-filled morons, and that is truly saying something.

    T-boning, side-swiping and rear-ending seems the norm in this championship. Although we must admit, it makes for an entertaining highlights reel!

    nothing really new. When I attended one of the first 348 Challenges in Europe those guys did exactly the same.
    more Wacy Races with Dick Dastardly and Muttley drivers :)

    Rob has nailed it. Summed the entire concept in one sentence! Also one idea comes to mind: click bait!

    Kind regards,

    Nuno.

    True, nobody has an Issue with some contact which can happen while fighting but some (Guest-) Drivers went to far... and have been excluded.
