RPM Army TBT: Jeep Cherokee SLAMS Into Wall
.
If any of you have been to the Hartford Fair in the last few years for the Rough Truck Races, you probably have seen the catch fence they installed on the infield spectators side. I’m pretty sure that this Jeep Cherokee was why that was installed. The run begins just like any other, but on…

Demolition Derby Meet Asphalt Circle Track Racing
.
What do you get when you combine circle track racing on the asphalt with demolition derbies? Apparently someone asked that question at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway, because that is exactly what Carbon Video recorded in this video. I could hardly stop watching these videos once I found the channel. Make sure you go check the…
