My family lived on Long Island NY in the early 60's and went to the fair where we watched one. It was an exciting night for a 5 year old plus we got to see diving horses, Joey Chitwood and cars driving on 2 wheels. Seeing you and Ron enjoying that brought back a lot of forgotten childhood memories

Great fun, Bre and Ron! Thanks for posting this. I attended a demolition derby back in my youth (mid-'70s) in central Illinois. Back then, they were all front-engined and rear wheel drive, so there was a lot of driving backwards. It was a blast, with all those cars running straight pipes out of the engine hoods (muffler? What's that?)! 👍 Something interesting to note: Within about a minute of the first event starting on your video, the term "malachi crunch" came, irresistibly, to my mind. Then I did a quick web search and found that it was from a 1976 episode of Happy Days, and that was apparently where Pinky Tuscadero was introduced. 😃 I'll bet I haven't used that term since a few years after I saw that episode of Happy Days. Yet there it was, quietly sitting in my brain for for over 45 years. Hah! 😆 Thanks so much for sharing this video, and reminding me of a couple little gems from my youth. 🥰

The demolition derby looks like great fun, I've learnt so much from you & it's enabled me to repair countless bits of garden machinery over the years. If you like demolition derby, take a look at Ringwood raceway also know as Matchams near me in Dorset, UK. I've always loved watching the car & caravan race & car & speed boat race.
