The wildest, loudest, metal-twisting Labor Day Demolition Derby of the year is back at Stateline Speedway — and it’s bigger than ever. Presented in partnership with Head-On Derby Promotions, this event brings a full afternoon of nonstop destruction with big car counts, huge hits, and major payout upgrades for 2026.

After a massive inaugural year, the 2026 edition cranks it up with a $15,550 total purse (nearly 70% more than last year’s demo derby purse), top 5 paid in every division, and prizes for all participants. Come hungry too — BBQ and concessions open early, plus live music to build the energy before the first cars roll.
