We have demolition derbies here, usually in conjunction with Sprint Car events. Kind of fun...There's actually some method to the madness also. :) (Believe it or not.) They race just about everything here...They even have demo derbies with caravans hooked up. Lol.
I loved racing my kart. It was not a dirt cart though, a road-going one. It was capable of about 120kph and was great fun to drive. This was in the days right before it went very technical with MOTEC ECU and dash configurations etc. That's sort of why I had to stop...I just couldn't afford all the latest tech. Faith likes her engagement ring, a 100 year old antique or triple rose cut diamonds, at the time of buying it. There's a good story behind it which I may tell someday.
I feel that, the more tech involved the more I try to avoid it. Most of my tinkering with cars was mainly with old ones that didn't have all the electronics.
Cab't wait to hear the story to go with that ring!
Lol, I'll tell it someday...It's probably only interesting to us, Faith and I, but it's a good story I guess. I'll get to it.
