Gears and Tears on BBC 1 is following 2 rival teams that compete in the BriSCA F1 Stock Cars.

I’ve never been to a Stock Car race so cant really comment on that part, but from the footage that the BBC shows seems to show high tensions and a fun and friendly environment.

The program focuses around 2 familys who have a rivally between each other, The Smiths From Lancashire and the Wainman’s from Yorkshire, not far from me in there home town of Silsden if i remember rightly.

I’ve never really known much about stock cars but Gears And Tears covers it all, from Pre race prep to the end of the race where everything’s crumpled.

Gears And Tears is definitely worth a watch on the iPlayer now.
