Crash-Crash, Bang-Bang

That describes the last outing we were at- The World's Largest Demolition Derby! My brother has done this for the last two years and seems to really look forward to it, as do we! My sister in law paints the demo car and has the pleasure of free handing whatever her husband decides for the theme. This year: Spider Man.

Our family really enjoys going to this and routing for him. Although I must admit watching the first round makes me so nervous that someone is bound to get hurt.

He was in the second heat because he was considered an "experienced driver"..go figure. I really didn't know that their was experience behind smashing your vehicle into another vehicle? Anyway, my brother started off great and ended up going to the second round. After a long time in the ring, his poor car just couldn't take any more! He ended up winning a large trophy and some cash, not bad for a day at the fair.

He took one crazy hit that put him in the backseat and today he is nursing some whiplash and a few aches but he will forget all about these pains come next year for the derby once again!

Here are some pics of him when he first lined up, during the smashing, and after.. Ok it's not letting me add the pics..look to next post for pics!

Nice Job David!
