ENDURO is a look inside the world of amateur auto racing, blue-collar style. At Riverhead Raceway on Long Island, racers and fans participate in the decades-old tradition of Enduro racing. Drivers pick cars out of the junkyard, then adorn them with bizarre logos and colors designed to intimidate opponents. The races attract all types, from the battle-scarred veteran to the nervous newcomer, and a culture of Enduro enthusiasts has developed. In this "poor man's" auto race, the prize money is small, but the competition is fierce!
