TWISTED REDEMPTION 2026 OFFICIAL RESULTS
WHAT AN INCREDIBLE NIGHT OF DEMOLITION DERBY, NOW WE CANT WAIT FOR BOURBON BEATDOWN 2027!
First and foremost, I want to give a HUGE THANK YOU to every single driver who put in the time, money, hard work, and dedication to build a car and bring it to Freedom Hall for Twisted Redemption 2026!
We know what it takes to get these cars ready. The countless hours in the garage, the late nights, the money invested, the sacrifices made, and the determination to get everything finished in time.
You guys showed up, rolled onto that awesome track inside Freedom Hall, and put on one heck of a show!
Whether you traveled five miles or 500 miles, whether you were a seasoned veteran or competing at Freedom Hall for the very first time, we appreciate you choosing to be part of this event.
Without the drivers, there is no demolition derby. You are the heart and soul of this sport, and your dedication is what keeps it alive and growing.
I also want to personally thank the entire Twisted Metal Motorsports team for an absolutely awesome show!
Your professionalism, dedication, hard work, and willingness to do whatever it takes to get the job done are exactly what make these events so special for both our drivers and our fans.
From the countless hours of preparation leading up to the event to the long days and late nights making sure everything runs smoothly, your efforts do not go unnoticed.
Putting on an event of this magnitude takes an incredible amount of teamwork. From our inspection crew, track officials, judges, equipment operators, lineup crew, announcers, and everyone else working behind the scenes, every single person plays an important role in making this event successful.
The drivers bring the action, but it’s the dedicated people behind the scenes who help make it all possible.
I’m extremely proud of the team we’ve built and the professionalism you bring to every event. The way everyone works together, handles challenges, and stays focused on getting the job done speaks volumes about the people representing Twisted Metal Motorsports.
To the entire team, THANK YOU! I couldn’t do this without you, and I appreciate each and every one of you more than words can express.
