Before NASCAR

Filed under: International |


...there were the chariot races at the Circus Maximus. Anyone who’s seen Ben-Hur will know.
It turns out there’s a movement afoot to bring back these chariot races to Rome; it also turns out that some chariot races have already taken place elsewhere: Jordan, Bulgaria, and...France.
I only hope some FIA-type organization doesn’t get their grip on it and regulate it to death.
