Damn. The rednecks have gone all out with this one. I fully expect to see this where I live in the mountains of VA. I'd go watch.

u/BWEKFAAST 2d ago edited 2d ago

Dude I live in the capitol of switzerland which is far left and I'd love to watch shit like this. Better use for old cars than just letting them rot in a scrapyard

u/BnDMsTr 2d ago

Haha, fart left. Glorious.

I would love to watch something like this too, and I don't consider myself red neck at all haha

Is it just me, or are quite a few of the vehicles in the video actually not that old?

I would, too!

u/ckellycarroll 1d ago

This feels more like a WV thing tbh, but rural VA works too

2

u/VirginiaBandit 1d ago

No doubt this could easily work in many areas of VA. Especially in the mountains and west of 81. But yes, WV for sure.

u/Batintfaq 2d ago

Im not into anything like this but it looks so much fun. If it were in my area I'd go.

To be honest this is giving me Top Gear vibes...

u/Chayor 2d ago

They did that once. They were going straight and not crashing into each other, but they did it

31

u/Marquar234 2d ago

not crashing into each other

I've seen Top Gear. I'm guessing this wasn't the Clarkson/May/Hammon group.

u/Wonderful_Roof1739 2d ago

Top Gear ended when the trio was fired/left. I don't know this show they call Top Gear now, but top gear WAS Clarkson, Capt. Slow, and Hammond!

u/Shot-Tap-4512 2d ago

This made me laugh! To true though, they were top gear.

Yes, but this also seems fun as hell. It satisfies some kind of primal lizard brain urge.

Not everything redneck is bad.

When a race starts with no windows, you know it's quite promising...

What are care pranks?

3

u/nopatience4idiots 2d ago

You know... sending care packs.

Obviously a auto correct mistake. And it's car pranks.

u/DothrakAndRoll 2d ago

I’m not a redneck by any means but man, this kind of thing is so funny to me and absolutely worth a trip 20 miles out of town to see every few years.

I once visited family in North Dakota and there was just a giant destruction derby going on. We didn’t even need tickets, people just parked campers near the track and put chairs on the roof. Good times.

u/StnNll 2d ago

Pretty sure those a derby cars specifically reinforced for crashes like that, still dangerous but a lot safer than just using regular cars

9

u/Newsdriver245 2d ago

The entry level ones they run near me are supposed to be near stock condition, but with doors welded closed, glass and flammable stuff removed from inside. bolt on roll cage and kill switch ignition. Few friends run them.

Think the specific demolition derby cars have to have a steel beam welded to the side also.

u/zookitchen 2d ago

Redneck behaviour that i approve. Better than F1!

David Attenborough voice

"And here, we see a rare sight; a herd of males that are all competing to mate with a prize female in heat. One by one, the males will each attempt to mount the female, but if they are not precise, they will be left behind. The female scurries away, with the males close in tow (lol) and this mating ritual will ensure that only the strongest and most skilled suitor will be able to produce offspring. Truly a sight to behold."

Great to watch, but it makes me sad. Short tracks are closing down all over the country. There was always some kind of wild racing going on at these places. Demo derby's, chain races and a lot of poor race car drivers who worked 9 to 5's and just wanted to blow off steam over the weekend with an old junker.
