Nice topic .. true story here. The local fair always had a demolition derby. had been in the past they didn't mind if you drove the car in or hauled it. we lived about 6 mile south of the grounds. many years before some of us just drove them in. Mostly they had security guards there .. this year they had State police directing traffic.. many of us were pulled over till the officer came and released to the track. He said he didn't have enough time or enough paper to write us up for what he could ... me I got it for no license on vehicle, and no inspection... As I was about to follow a small dump truck down to the Gate His chain broke that was up over the tail board to the cars front bumper...He had to stop and let the car hit his truck... I couldn't imagine what may have taken place if it happened on the road. at least I had control of mine. Oh ! It cost me $55.00 and 5 bucks to enter. I didn't win.
Ps I didn't mention to him a few weeks before that we were taking a 56 Plymouth race car to the track most of 20 mile we just left town maybe 5 mile out and the tow bar broke. WE had a driver was to meet us.. he said if we got it there,and had it warmed, up he would bring his semi tractor as he was out on the road, but would meet us there..
We were in a bind as to what to do, so I decided to drive it there. We did meet up with him and he drove it all that night .. we put in some more gas , and I drove it home in the dark buddies following my tow car for my headights.
