Argentina Midgets

2/24/10, 12:49 PM

I'm familliar with sprints and midgets in Austrailia and New Zealand. And sprint cars in South Africa and those crazy bumper cars in the UK but I wasnt aware of midget racing in Argentina. Looks pretty wild!

Is it just me or do the midgets in Japan and Argentina look really affordable???

Notice the tires used in both countrys... Motors and tires seem to be quite a bit different than midgets here and down under, huh??

It just tickles the crap out of me to see this type of racing going on around the world...makes me really want to travel someday...

Did you notice the Japan cars have Kirkey seats and autopro belts but those poor guys don't have tearoffs???

Their midgets might not be as expensive or sophisticated as ours but their ladies futbol team is impressive!
