Forget Nascar

This is the only racing for me.
Cheese racing.

Q: What do you think happens when you throw a slice of processed cheese (without removing the plastic wrapping) onto a lit barbeque?

The plastic melts giving off highly toxic fumes and you are left with a pretty grim cheese/plastic mess welded on to your BBQ, right?

WRONG!

aw, that sounded like so much more fun in the brochure, I was expecting a 'When the pressure is released, there would be a 'splosion capable of propelling the cheese'. Maybe they just need to have a bigger bbq, or more cheese...

I prefer beer-fart lighting competitions, with prizes for distance, heat, and interesting hues.

Why would you link to such an obvious puff-piece?

Oh those wacky British. These are the same folks who brought us the game of darts. Where you drink lots of strong ale and then hurl precision, deadly sharpened, flying objects across the room at a target that appears to move if you stare at it long enough.
Now if we could only combine the two.

I was quite impressed that the sport has had zero fatalities (so far)....
