Shocking moment fight erupts at boy racer meet in row over 'whose car is fastest'

THIS is the shocking moment a fight broke out at a car meet after a boy racer started a row over whose vehicle was the fastest.

The Vmax200 car meet at the Kendrew Barracks in Rutland, East Midlands, on October 24 turned into chaos when groups of racers started brawling with each other.

Footage from the event – which sees sport car owners try to reach top speeds in their vehicles – shows a group of men arguing over who had driven the fastest.

One man wearing a blue jacket shoves a fellow racer, sending him flying into a black BMW.

The fight continues on the ground and a man wearing a green jacket is then seen taking a kick at the racer who is lying on the floor.

Both men are helped to their feet but another brawl soon starts between two other racers.

YouTuber DMO Deejay identified himself as the person who was punched first and claims it was sparked when he went over to gloat his rival, saying "my car has dusted yours".

He had uploaded a video to his 319,000 subscribers claiming "he had stuffed his face and wasn't looking for a fight".

The YouTuber, who is wearing all black, admitted he approached his rival to gloat after clocking a speed of 209mph, beating his rival's 207mph.

DMO Deejay confessed: "Let me defend myself at least. I’m not going to sit there and get f***ing beaten up am I? What would you do if you was in that situation [sic]?

"At no point did I call anyone to help. Automatically someone else has jumped in to put their two pence in too."

In July, he was slammed for bringing the M60 to a standstill to pose for photos with a convoy of cars driving from Telford, Shropshire, to Manchester.

Vmax200 began in 2002 before being purchased by the supercar club Auto Vivendi in 2014 and holds four car meets at Kendrew Barracks each year.

In response to the fights, Vmax said: "Like so many of you who attended our event today and for those who watched on social media, we were disgusted by the disturbance caused by a small minority of people at today's event.

"We will not tolerate such behaviour and will provide full support to the authorities to enable them to identify and deal with the perpetrators.

"Vmax200 has been a friendly, good-spirited event for real car enthusiasts for over 18 years.

"We will ensure those who caused problems today will never return as we do not want them as part of our Vmax200 family."

Craig Williams, managing director of Vmax200, said: "The team at VMAX200 work hard to ensure the safety of the people attending our events, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic when it is so important to follow social distancing rules.

"The altercations were isolated incidents. We worked closely with, and at all times followed the advice of, Leicestershire Police on the day and we continue to assist them with the ongoing investigation."

A spokesperson for Leicestershire police said: "One person reported sustaining minor injuries and enquiries are continuing into the incident and the circumstances leading up to it.

"No arrests have been made."

DMO Deejay has been approached for a comment.
