Here's a video shot by my buddy Jerry from the cab of my other buddy Pat's crazy rear-engine V-12 COE. Pat's the one giggling like an idiot, Jerry's the one cursing up a storm. Watch it with the sound up...without the kids around. Here's a shot of the truck, and here's the video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9s2H3cURwc
I would have loved to have been in the truck. I bet his buddy is still cussing him and he is still laughing.
Now that is too funny! I remember watching them go thru the mud thinking that was some serious muddin' Glad to see it from inside! Thanks, oj
THAT is why the Jalopy Showdown is the most FUN show I have ever been too!!!! If you cant get into that - dont go on the track - if you can - put it on the list - cause you will have a blast!
That's funny as hell. I watched three times and still laughing. I would do that to my dad in a hart beat. LOL Too funny.....
I remember watching that truck make that trip around the track but had NO idea he opened the window so he could see ! This has to be one of the best videos on the HAMB by far ! Yes is was a muddy show but like everyone else that was there , WE ALL had a great time ! Retro Jim
found this today in a file with other videos. I saw the slo-mo- videos and thought............it would work here
That has to be the best video from the showdown. My videos don't look that good. I took apicture of it the fisrt time around you can't even tell what car was behind the wall of mudd. It was good to see what it looks like from the inside And no that mudd will be coming out for years no matter how many times you clean it.
I just found these two great shots of the truck plowing through the mud...now that we all know what the soundtrack sounded like! I boosted these from a post on here by BratRod...there are actually some pretty neat photos from the show on his flickr site here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/airicdesigns/sets/72157626678450167/?page=3
I've heard 3 days with the pressure washer and there is still mud coming out from under the dash. Pat will never do that again.........YEAH RIGHT...WAIT TIL NEXT YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO cool seeing that truck going through the mud! I didn't make it this year but STILL washing off mud from last year! Big-time fun! Thanks to The Sacred Pistons for letting me hang out! peace
I can't remember when I laughed so damned hard like that. That was great. I'm sure glad that I don't have to help clean that thing up though. Thanks to the guys who added the other video and the photos too. That really adds to the story.
Hahaha what a riot Here's another link i found, again in slow mo with some pretty cool images and a great soundtrack. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITCiEcp0r5A&feature=player_embedded#!
