31 Outlandish Races

From NASCAR to Bathtub Racing

Oh how I love Trend Hunter Magazine. I got excited following up the NASCAR Pepsi 500 race in Fortana, California and decided to write a cluster about racing. I expected to find NASCAR items, car innovations,… the usual suspects.  Little did I know that I would end up with some of the strangest and most outlandish races I have ever heard of.

In addition to innovative NASCAR trends, I found bathtub racing, lawnmower racing, ostrich racing, baby racing and even races where participants wear stilettos!!!

Enjoy an assortment of these races courtesy the incredibly rich library of micro trends at Trend Hunter Magazine.
