Featured Review
The first all female demolition derby was awesome. The place was packed, the energy of the crowd was electric as people jumped out of their seats, screaming and cheering for their favorite car! The gals kept up a great fight to the end and the winner was an unexpected surprise. They all showed grit and no fear and they revved up their engines and smashed into each other again and again!! It was a great show for a great cause. Donations were taken by the Susan G. Komen foundation and in return derby souvenirs were handed out. I will definitely be there next year; front row!!

The last 2 heats were great! A bunch of cars in each and lots of action. Lots of fun to watch and exciting.
The first 2 heats were a waste of time, 4 and 5 cars respectively, and the cars just wasting time so that they could get to the final heat.

Not bad entertainment; however, need more cars and the announcer needs to be more animated. This year they did start fairly close to on-time. Since it's at noon you would think the promoters would have all the pit crews organized!

I can't put a finger on it and it could be just a random set of events, but this years Saturday Night Orange Crush was the least exciting in recent memory. Perhaps it is because there were only 10 cars involved or possibly because it was won by a 43 yr old grandmother who won by playing it safe and not really bashing anybody. The bottom line is that is was just OK. I would have rated it 2.5 stars if that was an option. Does this mean we will no longer attend? Heck no! This event is now a tradition for family and friends. I only hope it is better next year. If anybody from the fair happens to read this review, please note that having the two shows/derbies (afternoon and evening) on one day was our preferred format. We have kids that LOVED it but go to sleep early. It would be great to get the afternoon show back on the schedule. We also liked the charity auction for driving privileges that they had done in the last couple years. We really missed that this year.

The Demolition Derby was so much fun. There was only one girl driving and she won so that was pretty cool. It doesn't last too long so there's plenty of time to get back to the fair.

They had 10 cars, the whole event was over in less than 30 minutes. That was too much hype for too little action. Also, it appeared some drivers were paying favorites, they wouldn't hit certain cars even though they had a clean shot.

nice action, exciting to watch, but for the money it was way too short at about 30 to 45 minutes.......i believe u need more cars, and possibly setting up rounds for elimination. very crowded and a lot of work for customer to get to for a short show.

We always have a great time at the demo derby and look forward to it every year at the Fair. The trucks are by far the best event, although the final round was very exciting this year too!

My wife & I totally enjoyed the Demo Derby, first time for the wife, all she does is talk about the good time she had, filled with excitement. The fireworks display was a little cheesey.
