Crash! Crash! Crash! features close up action from dirt track midgets and sprint cars. Watch them spinning furiously with just a cage protecting the driver as they careen around the track in thick traffic.
This programme goes beyond the racetrack. We reveal the psychological and physical rehabilitation of a driver. We examine the risks drivers take and learn what personal choices they must make to extend their racing careers.
These tiny open cockpit cars reach speeds of over 100 miles an hour on short tracks, creating havoc in the most violent type of racing around today. When these cars bump and push each other into massive tumbles and crashes, we get to see 'unintentional tricks' with names like: self inflicted, barrel roll, bicycle, helicopter or end to end.
Crash! Crash! Crash! takes the viewer inside the mind of the professional race car driver to explore why they continue to push their cars and themselves to the limit.
