RESEARCHING DEMOLITION DERBY

Because it is traditional to have a demolition derby at the Noble County Fair, I started looking around the web out of pure curiosity and I found out that there is now a Demolition Derby Drivers Association. The HOMEPAGE of their website states the following:

We are the Demolition Derby Drivers Association, we are a group of over 4,000(and growing) demolition derby drivers from across the country. We have united to have a single voice to help better this sport. Our motto is "by the drivers and for the drivers" and we will always make our decisions in the best interest of drivers. This does not mean promoters, fair boards and fans can not be a part of the organization, in fact we encourage your inputs. We want to work with promoters and insurance companies to accomplish our first task. Our first mission will to get a standard set of rules across the country, so that we can run our cars at multiple events without major changes. This is just the first of many thing we will try to accomplish as a group.

Some basic ground rules we want everyone to understand about this organization: we will never promote an event, we will never charge for services, in fact we will try to not charge for anything. Donations(promoters/classifieds) and selling T-shirt/decal etc.. should be enough to do everything we need to do as an organization.

They also provide a page of TIPS and it begins with these two sentences: "Use all these tips at your own risk. I do not imply or guarantee your safety. This information is for entertainment only and is not to be used by sane people.

Oh, by the way, the link, if you want to type it in manually, is not www.demolition . . . No, it is www.wecrash.com
