Chain Racing - Two cars chained together. The front car has an engine but no brakes. The second car has brakes but no engine

When every county fair in your half the state all has a demolition derby you got to up your game with something different.  I thought it was pretty cool.

1. Liked that parts were flying off just like Cybertruck's.

2. Love, loved the hand painted sponsorship advertising on the cars.  "...everything becomes an ad infested flow"  RC.

Genius. Our county fair has a really popular event, more so than demolition derby or tractor pulling or horse pulling or any of the traditional favorites: the Dachshund race. Most of the dogs never make it to the finish line. After a few minutes, several are running the wrong way. A friend's dog is the 5X champion, achieved by waddling in a straight line to the finish.
