Of course that is the safest option, unless one of those super fast out of control figure eight cars crashes through the barrier running over kids, babies and the puppies..

I feel derbies are safer because figure 8 specifically has your drivers door faced towards oncoming fast cars.

I will also say demo is safer on the whole.. Been busted up far worse in figure 8 and even oval track than I ever have in a derby..

I wouldn't call either one safe. Around here I would say F8 is less dangerous.

i voted demo simply because i have taken some pretty hard driver door shots figure 8 racing and broke a wrist, but i really dont know how much "safer" it is if at all, gotten pretty beat up in a derby car as well

I say demo derby is a little safer. I have seen tons of roll overs in figure 8's.

I would have to say figure 8s the ones I have seen where like stock cars 4 driver door bars full cage and the demo are sadly stock we are lucky to have a 1/8 plate over the door. Please tell my beer is safe.

I went with Derby is safer of the two. No experience with Figure 8, but actually racing, I would say speeds would be faster...

i said demo derby safer, ive done enduros, fig 8, demos, speed is what injures. the fig 8s around here let you run 100% loaded bumpers welded to the fire wall and they throw those cars in with that day stripped cars and let them loose. derbies you know your gonna smash so you make your car as hard as you can. Fig 8s more of a i got a car im going to wreck it and scrap it by the end of the weekend, hardly any safety.
