Banger racing is a type of motorsport event popularised in Europe and especially Great Britain, in which drivers of old vehicles race against one another around a race track and the race is won in terms of the first car to the chequered flag, all the while attempting to deliberately wreck the opposing vehicles. It is sometimes referred to as "enduro racing" in the USA. The race tracks are usually oval like most motorsports but on occasion are constructed in a figure eight design.

Banger racing vehicles are normally scrap automobiles, they can be conducted with almost any powered wheeled vehicle - bizarre versions of the sport using automobiles towing caravans happens as a special event at many tracks.

Banger racing is distinct from demolition derby as the objective of that motorsport is not to turn laps, but to simply smash and destroy and ultimately immobilise the oppostition, until only one vehicle is left, which is deemed the winner. On many occasions though the last event of the day at a banger racing event may be a demolition derby.
