Apparently, there are underground smash up clubs where adults crash into each other in Barbie Cars. The concept of retro toys and adult fun is similar to the Big Wheel Adult Racing featured earlier this month. In this case, the participants dress up like cartoon characters, hop into retro plastic toy cars, and smash into each other. They also appear to draw large crowds.
I can't remember if there is anything I've ever wanted to try more. Unfortunately, I found these random images on a google image search and the site is down. So for now, these clubs remain an item of elusive mystery. If you know more about this underground spectacle, add a comment. I want in!
