first things first!

    Ok so before i get to the how to things i figure you should know a lil bit about me. My name is Kole im from Leb. Pennsylavania and i have been doing demo derby's since 2005 wich ya you could say isn't a very long time but i have learend so much in that time period from upgrade's from previous build's to tips from other local drivers.

        what started me into demo's 2 things i have always been facinated by people who would purposly ram there car's into one another(bumber cars one of my fav rides at hershey park) One year before i started my Brother drove a 1987 ford crown victorio at the local derby and it inspried me to the point( hey if he can do why can't I ) As time went on i was i need of a senior project (which is a project that you had to first get approved and then prestent it as well before you could graduate) and it had to be something other then your job, there where kids who did car buliding baby sitting community service ect. Well befor i could submitt a project i needed to know that i had one, lucky for me I had a brother with an eye and connections to finding a derby car.

           Right around as school had started he call's me up and say's hey i found a car (1979 ford thunderbird) So my brother and I went to go buy the car it ran and drove wich was a bounus since i didnt have a trailer at the time we talked with the owner who said he will sell it for $200, (this is why it pays to know people) My brother say's give you $100 for it and we will put you on as a sponership. He agreed and sold to me for $100. the car was mine but now i had to get it approved by my senior advisor in order to make it a project.
            So now i had to write out a resume and submit it, after i submittited it all i could do is wait. after a couple weeks I had it returnted to me with the approvel stamp (I was about to do the cooliest project ever )

           As it goes when it came to presenting my project i passed and graduated the fowlling year ask for how did i do in the demo well see for yourselfs and you be the judge
