Even More Destruction at Day 2 of the Derby

Day two of the Turlock Lions Destruction Derby at the Stanislaus County Fair featured behemoth motor homes squaring off in the FoodMaxx Arena, much to the delight of the thousands of spectators.

Motor homes smashed, crashed, and dashed around the arena, with the risk of flipping on every sharp turn. Eventually, a motor home fell victim and flipped. By the end of the heat, the area was littered with bits and pieces of motor home.

Hilmar’s Kurtis Van Foeren, of Hilmar, took home the biggest prize of the night in the motor homes heat, earning $2,500, followed by Turlock residents Troy Lean, $1,000, and Eddie Dixon, $500.

In the Powder Puff heat for the luxurious muddbunnies, Turlockers Kendall Green and Cheyanne Cabral took home first and second place. Green won $600 and Cabral $250. Melissa Holt rounded out the podium with a third place finish at $150 prize.

In the Open – Last Man Running heat Hilmar’s Joe Lourence earned first place and $500 while Turlock’s Fred Neto captured second place and $200. Nathan Holt took home the third place victory and $100.

The night’s big Van Foeren also captured the first place victory in the Trucks heat and the $1,200 prize. Brian and Nathan Holt earned second and third place, respectively, and the $700 and $250 prizes.
