Michael Farra

Banger racing is possibly the most accessible motorsport attracting people from all walks of life. Worn out machines are bought, restored and modified. Turning them from scrap into powerful racing vehicles. This series of images focuses on the Stansted Raceway. This place is the heart and soul of the Essex Banger Racing scene. A sport that can only be described as Lord of the Flies on four wheels. The dirt track is the Island, a space where there are no laws only Anarchy. The racers are the shipwrecked boys violently wrestling with one and another for the position of leader. In a society increasingly concerned with the burdens of masculinity this is a temple facilitating the expression of life’s frustrations.
