AFTON — When the gates opened at Afton Fairgrounds on May 25th, the quiet hills of upstate New York were anything but peaceful. Engines roared, tires screamed, and the unmistakable smell of burnt rubber filled the air. Memorial Mayhem 2025 wasn’t just another car show—it was a full-throttle, smoke-drenched tribute to freedom, community, and chaos and included Richmondville’s Harry Rode, Jr.
This year’s event delivered an all-out sensory assault.
From the jaw-dropping car show featuring everything from gleaming muscle cars to patina-coated rat rods, to the burnout contest that turned tires into fire, and of course, the demolition derby—a brutal, crowd-thrilling spectacle of twisted steel and gutsy drivers. The energy never let up.
But what made it unforgettable wasn’t just the action—it was the people.
The drivers who brought machines built to destroy.
The builders and show car crews who polished, tuned, and pulled up with pride.
The burnout kings who left their mark in smoke and shredded rubber.
The vendors, volunteers, DJs, and spectators who gave this wild, American spectacle its pulse.
It was raw. It was real. And it was deeply personal.
Memorial Mayhem is more than motorsports—it’s a gathering built on shared passion and patriotic purpose. Held each year on Memorial Day weekend, the event honors those who gave their lives in service, ensuring that we have the freedom to celebrate, build, race, and raise hell together.
With record turnout, an unbeatable atmosphere, and a show that didn’t stop until the sun dropped behind the smoke…
Memorial Mayhem 2025 made history.
