Route 66 Raceway will once again host the popular Team Demolition Derby. Team-Style Demo Derby Racing: Team demo style racing is fast and catastrophic, with 50 mph head-on collisions, heavy side swipes and cars totaled in just one hit. Team demo always has eight teams. Each team has four cars, squaring off two teams at a time, in a round-robin until there's a winner. To win the evening's event, the team must win three rounds. The one-of-a-kind Team Demolition Derby will have four events at Route 66 Raceway with the fourth event serving as the Finals. Team Demos are a Saturday night favorite for fans who want to see an adrenaline pumping two hour spectacular where eight pro teams face off in what can only be described as roller derby with automobiles.
