why isn't there a racing series where all the cars have no brakes?
imagine the hype.

Because not every thread on /o/ is this shitty.
>>14064695
i get it you're scared. look the corner comes around you wanna do brakey brakey? well that just means you have low test. that's how it is fella.
Because everyone would just be going slow as fuck

How about a racing endurance series dedicated to racing completely stock cars against each their competitors. Like Honda Accord vs Toyota Camry V Mazda6 and what not.
I'd watch the fuck out of it.

It's a much better idea than OP's. Not sure about endurance though, since the cars aren't all that equal the faster ones would take off early on and the only hope of catching them would be if they crashed.

Good point. So we'll keep the racing to about the same length as touring car racing.
What would it be named?
>>14065125
You know you'd watch the fuck out of it and be the unfortunate witness to real life shitposting.

Look up drag racing. You'll be amazed.
>>14065080
This already pretty much exists, a lot of the slower classes in endurance racing are basically stock sedans and compacts with nothing but safety and reliability mods.

Really? Post a link, please. I had no idea.
I drove with no brakes and it was the most fun while being scared Ive ever had
it was in the snow and I was speeding too I ended up stuck in a ditch but I was laughing my ass off the entire time

Off the top of my head, the first one I can think of is the NASA B-Spec series.
It's a race series for cheap subcompact cars, like the Mazda2, Honda Fit, Toyota Yaris, etc. The cars have a bare minimum of mods, with the only big work being the rollcage and other interior safety stuff (seats, fire suppression, etc), basic coilovers to equalize the cars and allow them to be set up for race tires, A/C and stereos removed, and that's about it. The only engine mods are exhausts, which don't really make power and are mostly there to make the series more exciting for spectators.

Not exactly "racing" and the cars do have brakes. But braking even once means you lost. The drivers drive accordingly (at 20mph...).
>>14068657
holy shit that sounds boring
>>14068674
It is...although sometimes it is quite hilarious. Like that one team which failed to reconnect their steering before starting a run. The driver drove straight into a wall instead of braking.
Also they changed the rules this year so you can´t overtake in the corners anymore. The reason being a few questionable moves by my university´s eco team, which they made to avoid braking.
Good enough to give us (the FSAE team) a good laugh here and there.

I wish boardtrack racing would come back, imagine 200mph bikes on banked turns
>>14064687
They should do this and just engine brake
