If SIDE BY SIDE BAGGER RACES don't GIVE YOU A THRILL YOU don't have a pulse
Yeah, I have to agree. At first, I considered it to be an amusing novelty. Kinda like figure 8 racing or dragging a boat behind you figure 8 racing. But now, I’m happy to admit, King of the Baggers is balls out, badass American racing at its best. In this day and age, it’s the closest we’re gonna get to watch big block Impala’s slug it out with 440 Dodge Coronets or 429 Ford Galaxys on a road course.
What fun!
Too bad Victory sank to the bottom of the ocean, that would’ve made it a righteous “Battle Royale”.
