19-Year-Old Saratoga Woman Rebuilds Cars Just To Beat The Crap Out Of Them

Saratoga 19-year-old Jerahleigh Johnson can weld a roll cage, rebuild an engine and smash a Cadillac with the best of them. “I’ve had grown men say, ‘I haven’t been hit that hard in years,’” her dad says of Jarahleigh's demolition derby domination.
After the engines shut down and 19-year-old Jerahleigh Johnson climbs out of her demolition derby car, people finally get a good look at the person who has been smashing them into oblivion.
Off comes the helmet and out falls her long blonde hair.
“I've had grown men say, ‘I haven't been hit that hard in years, let alone to have it be some little girl,’” said her dad, Jeremiah Johnson.

Back when Kalifornia was California and Reagan Country, dad used to take us to the local Demolition Derby. Soooooooooo much fun.
Just imagine the woke woksters learning that the Demolition Derby survives. Then again, you could play with the woke altered mental status and say that you are getting rid of the Internal Combustion Engines.
Heck, you could start an ALL EV Demolition Derby. Just beware of the burning, exploding batteries.

I just started tuning into demo derbies online for the first time within the past year. I’ve never been to one although I was aware of them since I was a kid (remember Smashup Derby toy cars?) The strategies are interesting.

Pinky Tuscadaro was already dominating the sport back in the 70s (or the 50s in "Happy Days" years). I think that's the last time I saw a demolition derby.

My mom, a prim and proper preacher’s wife, once told me that she liked going to demolition derbies. It must’ve been before my time ‘cause I am pretty sure she didn’t go after the kids started coming.

One might say that “demolition derby” comes quite naturally to women.

I like Leather better than Pinky. Plus, she had a nice voice.

I use to love going to the Father’s Day derby. Then, every car numbered itself “69” there were 8 out of 10 cars all number “69” The other two were “8” because you get it... the 8 ball. Get it. Huh. So funny. So clever.

Wonder if this affects her regular car insurance premiums?
Does it matter that her collisions are not accidents?

I had to laugh, as I was turning that over in my head trying to figure out a way to state that in a way I wouldn’t have to duck!

We live out in the country and about three miles away we have some neighbors who do demo derby. Then they bring the wrecked cars back and park them in their front yard. They go well with their double wide. But I’m sure that they’re nice people.

Lol...Don't think I'd have ever predicted that I'd be engaged in a discussion about the Tuscadaro sisters....but here we are.

Most hilarious thing I ever saw was a figure-8 race - with school buses.

Whenever Jerahleigh Johnson happens to turn menopausal, she will be living hell on wheels.
