CASERTA'S HELL

Racing history enthusiasts will readily remember some of the darkest days of the sport, when multiple drivers and spectators died on a same race. Le Mans 1955, Monza 1933, Rouen 1970, Indy 1973, Imola 1994, are just some of those sad days that remind us how thousands of people lost their lives at race tracks or places where races were held since the late 19 th century, in spite of today’s false sense of security. The earliest races took place on open roads, generally from one city to another.

The reader was instructed to Pass the mouse on top of the picture, and right hand click three times , because the pictures were so ”hot”. You cannot imagine how many people clicked on the thing! In fact, in less than a month, there were over 100,000 hits on the post, over 10,000 in one day! Eventually people caught on that it was a joke, and the number of visitors dropped
