Bri SCA Formula 1 Stock Cars
BriSCA Formula 1 Stock Cars is a class of single seater auto racing in the UK. Cars are custom-built and race on oval tracks of either shale or tarmac of approximately quarter-mile in length. The tracks they race on are surrounded by either armco or post and cable fences to keep the cars on the track. Racing is full contact, which means drivers are allowed to push, punt or spin fellow competitors out of the way. The cars are very strong and are of an open wheel design, but are designed with the contact element in mind, with front and rear bumpers and a sturdy roll cage. The cars are unlimited horsepower which means drivers can use any engine they like, but most use a Chevrolet small or big block V8 engine. BriSCA F1 is the pinnacle of oval racing in the UK, but is often confused by people with Banger racing which is a very different racing formula.

And my body laid in grave,
Ere a rusty stock o coal-black smith

Stared on the horses of the sea, and heard
The cars of battle and his own name cried;
And fought with the invulnerable tide.”
