My neighbour sent me these links. The good thing is no 40's or 50's Ford trucks were hurt in the making of these videos.

Slinger Speedway, just north of me hosts Slamfest every year. They do team racing, one person steers while his partner operates the gas and brakes. Chain races, front wheel drive race, the figure 8 trailer race and my wife's favorite, the school bus races.

I've not seen the chain race with vehicles
As a kid we used to tie our sleds to geather - It was great fun getting flung off your sled and into snow bank or rocks or trees

It's a real mess at that end of the night. I don't know how long it takes to clean the mess up but I do know I wouldn't want to do it.
