The dangerous world of contact motorsport

Written By Unknown on Sunday, 14 December 2014 | 02:17

Photographer Dan Giannopoulos has been shooting short-oval circuit racing this year, having grown up watching it at Arena Essex Raceway in the late 1980s and early 1990 with his father and brothers.
"I remember the deafening sound of metal ploughing into metal and the smells of disintegrating tyres, of petrol and burning clutches," he says.
"I would battle to see to see the action through half-closed eyes because it was the only way to keep out the grit and dust that billowed in large plumes from the dirt-oval track just metres from where I was."
