Where I live there are not any cool race tracks or, a lot of AX competions but we do have Monster Trucks. Yes I live in Central Oregon, the rednecks and ranchers used to have it all to themselves. But now with the mass exodus of Californians moving north, outdoor lovin' gen x'ers, and golf crazy retirees it is a changing place. But you are still more likely to see a huge lift kit on some old ford than any kind of nice older sports car.
So my 3 year old loves race cars and monster trucks. The monster trucks came to town and we went. We're talking about an indoor arena, standard hockey/basketball court size. These trucks with 500hp and straight pipes are jumping cars and getting almost 20 feet off the ground at times. Then stopping just before hitting the cement wall. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) It was LOUD, but ya know what my boy loved it and it was pretty impressive what all that power can do. You can tell, I don't get out much. |

I've been down to the Cajon Speedway, just outside of San Diego, they have Boat Trailer Races twice a year. They actually strap the boats to the trailers and race them around a 3/8 mile circle track. It's alot of fun to watch. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)
