It was called , The Raptor, and it seated about ten people.
There were 4 Trucks all together. Not much of a competition, but it was fun to watch. Good reason to try the new lens on the camera. It takes very nice pictures this way.
It was the first time I ever saw them. So it was exciting for me, but other people that were at the event last year said last year was better.
Also that afternoon, another first. Chain races. Two carts chained together. The front car has power, but no brakes. Back car has brakes, but no power to the wheels. It was the high lite of the day. Specially the last race of the day, where they enter all 7 units in the same race. Had a big crash that took out three units at ones. Great fun.
This is the unit that ultimately won the race. The guy in the brake car is a drag racer. His comment? Thats the first time that I tried to slow down , instead of speeding up!
Oh well, fun was had by all.
This coming weekend off to visit Matt and Amanda, and Kings Landing....
