31 Oddball Races

From Drugged Car Racing to Musical Horse Races

— May 24, 2010 — Autos
Judging people isn't a pastime I'm proud of, but I have to say, I'm hard-pressed in compiling this cluster filled with oddball races. Everyone has their own take about what is fun, I guess! All I can say to these bizarre racing competitions is to each their own.

From extreme rickshaw racing to baby racing, there really is a contest for pretty much anything and everything. See these and more above.
