Last night Moon, Josh, and Thomas competed in the Wilson County Demolition Derby. Moon was in the second heat while Josh and Thomas were in the third heat. Moon came out being a heat winner for which he won a trophy and a check! : )
Something on Thomas's car was too advanced and he could not gain any speed. He was being smart and instead of letting the opponents beat the metal off his car, he broke his flag to save his car. Josh, on the other hand, gave EVERYBODY hell. His car is junked! He made sure that every car in his heat felt his presence! He was missing a tire, which he had no idea, and was still able to give a great show. If one more person would have broken their flag before Josh, he would have been a heat winner. He wouldn't have been able to go back to the finals, but he would have at least gotten his entry fee back plus some. He had fun and that's all he wanted!
So, Moon went back to the final and made sure he made a name for himself! I am so proud of him! He kicked some butt and took names while he was doing it! If it weren't for the sandbagging and double teaming, Moon would have gotten a higher standing, but I guess it pays to be in good with the officials. (With that being said, you are not allowed to watch the video of the derby unless the sound is muted!) Despite the cheating, Moon kept on truckin' with a busted radiator and flat tire. He tried to push on, but a broken distributor cap (that was zip-tied on in the beginning) kept him from proceeding. No matter the circumstances, Moon walked away with 4th Place, another trophy, and some more money! He was grinning from ear to ear!
