Not sure if anyone has caught this new reality show Kings of Crash, about the demo driver circuit.
In the opening credits you can see one car being demo'd is a '72 Road Runner.  :brickwall:

I'm liking it otherwise as there's not too much drama compared to some of the other shows.

That's really big here in Utah.

Pretty sure the show is filmed in Utah.
It's on Velocity.

Fortunately, it wasn't a 68-70. No great loss.

Most of the shows are only 30 mins from where I live.

I disagree. Had it been a 73-74 Roadrunner I would tepidly share your sentiment but the 71-72 Roadrunner is not something I would mistreat.

'71 - '72 Road Runners are one of my all-time favorite Mopes. Kinda sad to see one demolished in this day & age.
Did a quick search, this is all I could come up with for quick pics.  :icon_smile_dissapprove:

Years back a 3rd gen Charger was in a demo derby we call "Crash to Pass" in my home town. Sad sight...  :rotz:

Decades ago at a demo derby (big to do back in w. Ks.) someone paid a guy for a rig that hadn't been in a derby yet.

Not really worth mentioning since I can't remember what it was.  Someone with hindsight though.

Shame on you Mytur.   ;)  I used to think those cars were beat with the stick but my taste has really changed over the years.  Especially when they're sporting both spoilers.




I think this real RR with the 472 is worth more than $40k.  If I had the $$ I'd be all over it.
