I loved the truck racing!
You would think that maybe there could be more conventional cabs then cabovers. Maybe? Do they all run with single axels or do some have double axels? Prolly all single...but yeah...Do they show this on the speed channel?
The trophy ceremony is a bit different. Funny...it is truck racing, and they are in a banquet hall to give out the trophies.
Very cool!! :thumbsup:

More Colorado off roading. I haven't done this one but I just saw a segment about it on Extreme 4X4.

Yeah that's cool. Also the first video int the "related video" column is cool too. I've see Shock Wave twice in person.

That's actually a Ford GT. That's the new one. The GT 40 was made in the sixties. I know a few guys who own the new ones, but none that I can think of with that color combination.

BTW, you HAVE TO park away from other cars with a Ford GT, because of the doors that wrap into the roof. If cars park on either side of you, you can't get into your car -- really, you can't.

There's been one of those running around in Mercer for a couple years now. I'm guessing it's from up in the high rent district in New Wilmington. 8) :lol: :lol:

This is a site(no video) to my favorite racing.It's REDNECK to the core.It used to play on cable about 2-3 times a year but I moved and this provider doesn't carry it.I love the way the winner celebrates.
