Get the popcorn - it’s 31 minutes.
I respect the work, money, and effort that goes into drag racing, but I’m not especially enthusiastic about it.
But damn, this shit makes Fast & Furious look like a bunch of kids in Power Wheels. They appear to be shutting down public highways. Then they have insane Super Stock-level cars race in a tournament. Get broken up by cops. Relocate. Repeat.
“You owe me a 10 second car”

Normally I would say this is shitty, but considering they used to hold it on a closed airstrip and the government shut them down I don’t blame them.

Ahh, didn’t realize that. That makes a little more sense as to why they did it the guerrilla way.

The Stockholm Open grew bigger and bigger until it finally went legit in 1993, moving to Malmby Airstrip in Strängnäs, but this wasn’t to last.
In the early 2000s, the government put a stop to the racing, closing down the legitimate event at Malmby because the cars weren’t ‘green’ enough. Racers protested, saying they would simply head back to the streets if they weren’t allowed to race legally. The government wouldn’t budge, so that’s exactly what they did.

It’s not often called “Absurdistan” for nothing.
