Te land ter zee en in de lucht.


Te land ter zee en in de lucht is a TV show that has been amusing the Dutch for 36 years. From Wikipedia:

Contestants must race along a track in self-made vehicles. Most parts of the game take place above water, and getting to the end of the track without becoming wet is nearly impossible. But to win, you'll have to be the fastest who reaches the end of the track, without becoming wet.

The show is recorded in various locations throughout The Netherlands and Belgium. Push play or go to YouTube.

All of those backwards racing competitions were held with DAF sports cars because of their variomatic transmission which enabled those cars to be able to drive as fast backwards as they did forwards. Since most of those DAF cars were extremely cheap in the 70ies, it was very popular to enter such a competition and wreck a DAF in front of an audience.
