No, I didn't bring my camera b/c last year they weren't allowed. I took a couple of pics with my camera phone, but we'll see how they come out when I get them.

Yeah, it was a blast and my boys loved it. My 2 1/2 year old actually got scared when the car-tank-dragon thing came out and started breathing fire... It was kind of funny, the way he kept eye-balling it, waiting for it to get him...

Section 205. Damn, what a show. I took my two oldest 2 years ago, missed last years, and was able to make this one. I didn't get to ride the truck, the line was about 3 hours long when we got there at 4:30. But, man, I loved seeing the excitement in my kids eyes. It was worth all the hassle and crowds.

Hey FL!!!

That was a sweet show. Hey and guess what? you were only sitting one section over from me!!! I was in 214 in row Z. I went last year and it rained the whole time. This year was really cool. That dragon thing was really cool too.

I know the whole stadium went quiet when Superman flipped over. The way he flipped, I really thought he was seriously hurt if not killed. Thank goodness for their high safety on those machines.

I have only been last year and this year, but I will definately go back every year again. Cameras are allowed and have been as far as I know of, but you are not supposed to use the video function if you have that on your camera.

On a side note, I think everybody wanted to hurt those judges

Yeah, I agree, GraveDigger should have won. He wasn't quitting unntil he flipped that truck. Madusa dissapointed me. I can't believe that the driver from Superman was unhurt, as soon as it happened, I was thinking of those coincidences that seem to happen more often these days, ie Bruce and Brandon Lee... Christopher Reeves gets paralyzed from a broken neck, then so does the driver from the Superman truck... Wouldn't that be weird????

No way Paul! did you happen to see anyone wearing a black Ford shirt and blue jacket? lol funny, I was in row X.

so what's the status of the Superman driver? I hope he is ok...

Madusa didn't impress me either... I thought the Avenger was great. And who was it, either the Destroyer or Max D who, in his freestyling, jumped BACKWARDS over the bus??

Draco the Dragon was really cool. Did you notice, even the van he crushed was a Ford Aerostar. I liked how there was not a mention of Chevy anything unless the trucks driving were Chevies. lol

Nothing says 'POWER' like those things under full throttle. I'd give damn near anything to have one of those for a day, 200 acres of hills and mud, and a infinite supply of fuel... Could anyone think of a better vacation?

I take my boys every year to the one here in Baltimore. We went last night too. They only had 6 trucks and it always is scaled way back due to the size restrictions of the arena. They still had a ball but I'd love an outdoor one where they can really cut loose.

I did get some pics I'll take a look later.....
