An inside look at an out-of-control backyard car race in upstate New York!
A Short Rural Documentary
Originally released in 2004, this critically acclaimed film that captures the mayhem and the glory of an annual barnyard car race in a tiny rural town in the Catskills region of New York. The story is just as relevant today. 4-Cylinder 400 is available to watch and buy now.
The Rules of the Race Were Simple
No car could cost more than $300, every car must have a 4-cylinder engine and hitting another racer’s driver-side door was prohibited. Watch a town come together on a family farm to watch competitors try to dethrone the four-time undefeated champion.
The Music of this Special Place & Race
The local musicians who make up Disciples of Agriculture and Big Barn Burning are the perfect music accompaniment to the 4 Cylinder 400 film. Experience the action through this music video, shot during the long hectic weekend of the race.
