Crash-A-Rama

This is what Sol came to town for. Crash-A-Rama. At a tiny raceway in the east part of the county they were having a demolition derby. The prelude to that was Super Dave crashing his car into a rv standing at a 90 degree angle. Then the motor bikes jumped a few ramps to get the crowd revved up. And then, the festivities began. There were car races through the muddy clay, races where cars were towing boats, races where cars were nose to nose and one had to drive around the track backwards, a roller derby-esque race, and then -- the event we'd all been waiting for -- the demolition derby. Good times. I love events like this because it's so far outside of my world that it almost feels like a new cultural experience. And this one was a fun one to boot.
