(Also, the second guy, the one in the freeze frame, is definitely 100% Christoph Waltz in disguise)

I love demo derby’s. They are 100% guilty pleasures and there is a lot of joy in the spectacle and experience.

i love the idea.

building something that will outlive the other cars. building to take as much advantage of what rules they give you to run under.

i have even thought of prepping up one of the cars in the yard, but keep it street legal enough to cruise on the street........ oh the plans......
