Jayden Davis Crowned 2026 ADDA NSW Compact Derby Champion at Tamworth Speedway
Tamworth Speedway played host to absolute demolition derby history on Saturday, 17 January 2026, as Jayden Davis etched his name into the record books by winning the 2026 ADDA NSW Compact Derby Championship. With a record-breaking number of entries, this event delivered exactly what fans expected and more.
From the opening hits to the final moments, the Tamworth crowd witnessed one of the most competitive and brutal NSW Compact Championships ever run. This was a demolition derby that could not be missed. The field was stacked with some of the biggest names in Australian demolition derby. Heavy hitters such as Shane “Beast” Ryan, Ruthless Racing, Thaboyz, Chris “Shake” Fisher, Trangie Wolf Pack, and many more brought elite builds, experience, and aggression to the track.
On paper, it was a championship dominated by seasoned veterans and proven winners. That is exactly what makes Jayden Davis’ victory so remarkable. Representing Trangie Wolf Pack (TWP), Davis entered the event as a relatively new driver compared to many of his rivals. Yet as the night unfolded, it became clear he was not there to make up numbers. Smart driving, patience, and perfectly timed hits saw Davis survive round after round in a field where mistakes were punished instantly. The defining moment came late in the final, when Jayden Davis dethroned defending NSW Champion Chris “Shake” Fisher in dramatic fashion.
Fisher, the reigning ADDA Australian Champion, is widely regarded as one of the toughest competitors in the sport. To outlast and eliminate a driver of that calibre in the closing stages was nothing short of incredible. In just his second career win, Jayden Davis has not only claimed the NSW title but has also sent a clear message to the entire demolition derby community. This was not a fluke. This was not luck. This was the arrival of a serious contender.
The 2026 ADDA NSW Compact Derby Championship will be remembered as the night a new name rose to the top — and the night Jayden Davis proved he is here to stay.
