From BoardGameGeek

Dice-driven board game simulation of demolition derby, using cards for both drivers and vehicles. From the PLAAY.com website: Demo Derby Smash-Down is a demolition Derby simulation board game, generating all the fender-rattling action of a real demolition derby! From bumper-pummeling barrages, to trunk-twisting reverse smashes -- you NAME it, you'll EXPERIENCE it in Demo Derby Smash-Down ! Just like in the real derby, cars can be damaged internally and externally. Get too much of either, and you're DONE. Avoid the big hits, deal out the damage, and be the last car running--YOU'RE the Demo Derby KING! Like the real demo derby, the action in Demo Derby Smash-Down is fast and furious! A typical derby event with a dozen or so cars can be finished in about twenty minutes, complete with smash-ups, engine failures, stray wheels, jacked-up trannies and steaming radiators! And it's not difficult to play. The game uses a simple "crash code" of a half dozen or so symbols which tells you what's happening, and damage is recorded in a straightforward manner that allows you to visually see which cars are in danger, and which ones are practically BEGGING to be bashed! "This ain't brain surgery!" -- It's Demo Derby Smash-Down ! Proving that sports simulation board games don't HAVE to be complicated to be FUN!
