Demolition Derby Rules
Important Derby Rules Announcement:
We want to announce that these are the new rules. We have joined up with Austin Johnson to try to benefit the derby drivers to bring their cars to multiple shows across central Illinois. Austin Johnson, Shaner Promotions and SF Dirtriders are in no way affiliated with each other, other than all parties have decided to run the same rules at each show. Our want for using the same rules is to provide the drivers more opportunities to run more shows. We want these shows to be fun, family oriented, and competitive. Thank you for your continued support for each show as this is a true passion for us as well.
