I am sure that @higgins will agree with me, but the best thing about Palmerston North is that they have this event every year. Here is a video from last year.
These guys are the real modern gladiators. Putting body and 100-200K machines on the line, teams racing for their club and their mates. And they do get hurt - see 20 seconds in, when 87B Thomas Stanaway goes for a ride up the wall - he separated 4 ribs from his spine in that hit

@Stockcar86 Don't have quite as fond memories of last year but the two immediately preceding that then most definitely yes!
-

Just another example of how animals adapt that’s all. Now if they triple in size and start hanging out under wharves.....

My young offsider at work is engaged to a young bloke who just won the NZ Superstocks. We're all booked in to see her driving her first Demo Derby race at the end of Feb. Fun times.

Has physicist's gravity theory solved 'impossible' dark energy riddle?
Prof Claudia de Rham’s ‘massive gravity’ theory could explain why universe expansion is accelerating
Maths theory only, but make more sense than some invisible shit that makes up most of the universe!

@JC I'm a superstock rep at Meeanee. Was stoked when Randy T won. He is really a nice guy. Down to earth, not up himself like some othr drivers.
-
@Stockcar86 Randy’s other half is a gem. I haven’t met a Randy yet, but I understand I’m on his bucket list.

@taniwharugby Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

@Chris-B more like driving to Auckland on the last day of a public holiday weekend?
-
@taniwharugby Is that something like driving from Nelson to Richmond at 5pm?
