....although a while back it did seem that the MCCH community reached a mutual decision never to discuss banger racing again after what happened....still, I like their acceptance of the fact that all the cars were too far gone to restore |

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!

As you guys may know I recently drove down to Kentucky, computer in tow. We have another Yank convert. What I didn't expect was that we'd spend hours playing "Seduction of Destruction" when all I had in mind was just showing him the game to see if he was interested in it. Is there a way to set this game up multi-player online? If so, I think we'll soon have enough players for an American League. Hopefully he'll register here in the near future. On a related note, he is now part of the RADAR (Truck) league. I gave him two and told him to go wild. I have no idea what he's got planned for them... muhahahahaha. |

I think some people were trying to work on an online SOD patch, so the online would work, it'd be awesome to play real people, not the terrible AI - did you show him any banger racing videos? |

Yup! I also showed him Tim & Alex's site, and our banger models here. We did have fun competing to see who could create the best lawn sculptures out of the AI cars.
We had some good ones!

As it seems most UK Classics car fanatics are against bangers, is it the same problem with derbies in the USA?? Although I heard the cars used in demolition derbies are not popular with enthausiasts

I've heard of some interesting iron getting used in demolition derbies too. One in particular stands out: On one televised demo derby about ten years ago (on TNN Motor Madness maybe?) one of the drivers had a '63 Galaxie coupe. He had been desperate for a car and was driving around looking for cars, and found this one parked in a garage that had the door open. It had well under 100,000 miles on it (I think it was 70,000ish?), was one-owner (little old lady, of course), garage kept, and up until three days prior to the event was still on the road. There was a former demo derby driver on Hobby Talk who talked about a guy who had a well-rotted '66 Dodge Charger in a derby he was in (circa early '90s). He also laid a nice sized hit on it with his own car. |
