Door-to-door for an entire lap is how racing should be | Video

What’s more exciting to watch than two cars battle it out side-by-side? Watching two cars battle it out side-by-side for an entire lap.

Of course, we wouldn’t expect anything less from a spec series like Australia’s TGRA 86 Series.

Wow. The last time that I was that close, for that long with my wife, we made a baby.

I wish we had a GT86 series in the US. That's a huge field and those cars will be racing for a long time. 

 

Super sweet.

Great to see them keep it civil, however, it's not hard to do side by side racing when everyone has the same spec car. As mentioned above, the spec Miata series is like this every lap.

I wonder if the bumpdraft as much as spec Miata and other us spec series tend to do? Everytime I watch spec Miata incar race footage I can't believe the amount of bumping allowed. It's like a open public indoor kart track race.

That was pretty cool.

#45 behind them is like me on the highway and people are driving the same speed 3 abreast.
