Monster Truck Bash

MONSTER! MONSTER! MONSTER!
The Monster Trucks were out in all their glory as we ventured to the Dirt Track at Lowe's Motor Speedway. We were able to get in early and get some photos of the monster trucks and to climb up on the wheels. The Raminator, Bigfoot, Hot Tamale, and Samson were our favorites.

We got to see Crash Car racing, where bumping into each other is encouraged during the race. These same cars later ran another race with trailers hitched onto the back of each car. The trailers were hauling everything from boats to porta-johns!

One of the highlights of the eveing was witnessing a tow truck with a jet engine melt six cars stacked in a pyramid (such an eco-friendly activity)! Everybody had a great time as Jake said "This is the best day of my life".

We think we've really become Southerners when we all found this event very entertaining! Check out the video from the show.
