I think K123 posted about this before... last night I heard it too... some sort of loud hard driven cars about, repeatedly, sounded pretty cool. No idea what it was, around 1am???!

Used to see large groups gathering in an old petrol station near Garrison Circus on Sunday nights ,in small hours .Several at a time would shoot out and racetoward the centre .This was a year or two back .

I've heard the noises, they sound like V8's at high revs, and fairly constant, not what you would expect from hooning round the spine roads, multiple similar sounding engines on a short track.

I took a guess at perry barr speedway bikes, but checking out their calendars never matched the right times.
