You ran a uni-bdy in a demo? Isn't that kind of silly? They just cannot handle the damage a bobdy-on-frame can take.

I have always wanted to see one :p

I ran midsize so the were mostly UNIBODY CARS! The secondpace car was a buick station wagon that looked like it hadn't take that much damage. The engine blew.

Airbag blew after a monster hit. There is more than one sensor. To those who have never had a bag blow it was LOUD and I almost pissed my self. The bag drove my left arm into the drivers side door and caused the lump. I am guessing by tommorow that lump will be really cool colors as well :D

Where is the ATOT name on your car. Very disappointed you didn't give the community any publicity at the event.

This is a excellent way to relieve the pressure & stress of everyday life. Looks even better then kicking my neighbors trash bins back to his side of the street.

I need to try & get into a school bus derby someday. :D

Do the full size trucks. That was intense to watch that They HIYT REAL HARD. and They have big mudders so they get better traction.

If you want to do extreame demo derby do the truck derby.
