Once you get over the incomprehensibility of it, it's really fun, and our kids loved it. The drivers were mostly high schoolers, and everyone cheered for their friends. Some of the cars had great names and wonderful paint jobs. I loved the way they just kept smashing into each other slower and slower in the mud until they couldn't move anymore, with the local volunteer firefighters on the sidelines waiting for the first fire. They didn't have to wait long. I’d never been to a demo derby before last summer at the Delaware County Fair in the Catskills, and I have to agree with your awesomeness rating.

There was a woman where I worked who was the most up tight, conservative person, yet she competed in demolition derby's...for Jesus. Her hubcaps had crosses painted on them! She boggled the mind.

I guess the the whole point was to emphasize key words by repeating them over the roar of combustion. Interesting.
