Destruction Derby is a 1995 video game developed by Reflections and published by Psygnosis, the former of which would later develop the successful Driver series. It was released for PlayStation, Sega Saturn, and MS-DOS (PC). Based around the real-life sport of demolition derby driving, the game involves wrecking other cars for points, or driving a simple stock car race around one of five tracks. Though simplistic in its aims, the game achieved popularity and was one of the first games to achieve platinum sales on the PlayStation console. The popularity of the game resulted in a 1996 follow-up, Destruction Derby 2, released for PlayStation and MS-DOS, 1999's Destruction Derby 64 for Nintendo 64, 2000's Destruction Derby Raw for PlayStation, and 2004's Destruction Derby Arenas for PlayStation

2.

The games in the Destruction Derby series have led to several attempts by other companies to recreate their success, such as Midway Studios Newcastle's (then known as "The Pitbull Syndicate Limited") Demolition Racer, and Bugbear Entertainment's FlatOut series. Unlike other racing games, the aim in Destruction Derby is not just to be the first to cross the finishline, but rather to accumulate the most amount of points. Points are gained by wrecking the player's opponents' cars. In every race there are 19 (15 in MS-DOS version) opponents of differing ability who race against the player.

There are three cars found in the game, the Rookie (Psygnosis), the Amateur (Grim Reaper), and the Pro (Smoothie). The rookie is the easiest to handle but it has the least power and speed of all the cars. The Amateur and Pro are more difficult to handle but have more power, are able to turn more effectively, and have greater speed. (Wikipedia)
