Minsk played host to an epic, post-apocalyptic themed destruction derby on Saturday, involving swashbuckling teams of daredevil drivers from Belarus, Norway, and Russia.

The heavily customized and reinforced vehicles took part in the ‘Battle of Cars 2017’ event over the weekend to test their mettle in a duel of mechanized horsepower and strength of will.

The spectacle not only displayed some sensational driving skills, but also some dedicated and inspiring design work in honor of the Mad Max franchise of films.

Not all competitors made it to the podium, of course.

The competition was tough, and when the dust settled, few competitors could even tell where they were after a series of spins, burnouts, and head-on collisions.
