| Description: | Stock car racing a la francaise. The idea is not to cross the finish line first, but just to survive to go the distance. Belgian drivers battle it out with the French team in a frightening fender fray from which only 3 out of 40 starters reach the finish. Somewhat like stock car demolition. Establish shot - Race cars coming around the dirt track. CUS - One car spots another car on the other team and smashes into that car. MCUS - Cars come around the bend and it is really a case of smash mayhem. MCUS - Car racing fans having a ball at the track. | |
