DescriptionEdit

Unlike other activities, this activity does not take place in the city, but within an enclosed Arena.

Each round begins with an announcer counting down from 3, after this the derby starts. There is no time limit, however if all other cars are destroyed before meeting the quota of that round, the round will be failed.

The demo derby vehicle is always equipped with nitrous. Engaging the nitrous when ramming other cars will do greater damage. However, if nitrous is used, it will take time for it to recharge. The location of other cars in the arena is indicated on the mini map as blue dots.

Saints RowEdit

There is only one location for Demolition Derby, which is the Ultor Dome in the Arena District

In Saints Row, the car is selected at random between Rampage and Ruckus. There is a set number of cars which must be destroyed per round, and the round ends immediately after destroying the required number of cars, even if other cars are still driving.

If damage is done to another car, but another vehicle delivers the killing blow, no points are earned.

The number of cars destroyed is displayed on the HUD, along with the number of opponents remaining.

CutsceneEdit

The Demolition Derby is introduced by a cutscene named "Crash Course", in which Garry and his brother Garry talk to the Protagonist.^[1]

Saints Row 2Edit

Again, there is only one location for Demolition Derby, which is Culex Stadium at Stilwater University, in the University District

In Saints Row 2, there are 4 cars to choose from: Ruckus, Rampage, Rumble and Frenzy. Between each round, upgrades can be applied to each car to increase speed, defense and attacks.

There is a set amount of money which must be earned per level, by the amount of damage done to vehicles. The round ends after passing that specified amount of cash, even if other cars still driving.

Easy upgradesEdit

There is an Easy Demolition Derby Easter Egg in Saints Row 2.

• On the Demolition Derby car selection screen:
• Rotate the car 180 degrees clockwise so the car is facing backwards
  • If the car is not not fully turned, this may still work
  • Rotating the car anti-clockwise does not work
• Set each slider to level 2
• Choosing "Enter Derby" as normal will display the message "You don't have enough derby points"
• Holding down Crouch + Sprint when choosing "Enter Derby" will start the derby with the chosen upgrades.

TriviaEdit

• There are no spectators in the audience.
• In Saints Row 2, there is an explosion bonus for being the last car to hit another car, regardless of whether it explodes on impact or minutes later.
• In Saints Row, in the introductory cut-scene, the two brothers wear helmets. However, none of the drivers wear a helmet throughout the entire activity.
• The Rumble is the only derby vehicle not to be based on an in-game vehicle; the Frenzy is a Voyage , the Rampage is a Destiny and the Ruckus is a Cavallaro.
• In Saints Row, it is sometimes possible to leave the vehicle when it is on fire, however, it is impossible to use weapons or enter any other vehicles and the activity still ends when the car explodes.^[2]
• It is possible to push other cars off the map. This will sometimes happen when driving onto a car that is next to the wall with the Car Mass Hole cheat on. This can also happen if a car smashes into another car so hard they fly out of the arena, as they will fall through the floor a few seconds later. In this case however, the car will teleport back.
