Local Monster Truck Show Pics

[Mr._The_King]

Here are some shots I took at the local dirt track which had a small but fun Monster truck and "stunt" show.

(I don't think this is licensed by Pixar but a here's little DIS shout out anyway

Monster Trucks doing Monster Truck things

I liked this view of the driver

Then it was time to light stuff on fire

Unfortunatley this "stunt" which was 1 of 2 happened so quickly the only halfway decent pic is of them lighting the wood and hay obstacles on fire. Shortly afterward a guy on an atv and a guy on a motorcycle road through them one time and then it was time for intermission

After intermission this guy

Did This

And thus concluded the "stunt" portion of our program.

Then the monster trucks came out again and continued to obliterate the seven cars that had been previously smashed flat and then... game over.

It was short and small timey but the kids had fun and it wasn't bad for a cloudy Sunday afternoon. Mostly I just enjoyed the time to try some panning and shooting some action photos. The biggest issue was trying to shoot through the catch fence as this was performed at the local dirt track and the safety fence meant to keep cars from coming into the stands has a number of poles that were hard to frame shots around.

Here's a few more that I like.

Thanks for looking

I think you did a wonderful job being that I forced you to move from your happy perch to be my backrest.

Really, I was surprised how much I liked this crazy little show. DS10 was very happy!
