The night started with the debut truck call Backwards Bob. The new vehicle piloted by Mike Wine is a body put on backwards. Talk about a trip watching a truck go full bore in what appeared to be in reverse over the entire track.Breakage was a semi common occurrence Jurassic Attack blow out a tie rod and a ram.Time Flies came out strong with use of the course well planned out and brought the first big air of the night, only to break in the last 10 seconds on the bonus time. A score well deserved. The Patriot who had to miss racing for breakage was out in full force. The hunger showed as he had one of the best saves I have ever witnessed. The truck was on two wheels in a slow turn making it about ¾ of a rotation at about 40 mph. He would hold the hot seat till Grave Digger came out and ruled the track. The end of the run the front left tire snapped off and he went another minute hitting obstacles and electrifying the the Stadium. Tom Meents was the last to go an had his work cut out for him.A roll over sent him all way over and landed him on the safety dumpster and was able slowly drive off and continue his run until another roll over landed him on his lid and was unable to get it over. The win would go to Grave Digger and he would also take home the Double Down trophy for sweeping the night.
One more round to come here in Anaheim. Hope to see you there.
