went there with my son and my wife today. Landon had a freaking blast. in the parking lot he was making the vrmm noises the whole way into stafford springs speedway. there were the usual trucks there, digger, maximum destruction, el toro loco, etc. the races were kinda boring, but the crowds favorite as well as mine is the freestyle. my kid just lit up when he saw the trucks flying through the air. makes daddy proud that big sis and mommy won't effect him too much with they're r&b music and crap like that, and that I will still instill the redneckyness of years past into him. here's some of the better pics.

It's been several years since I've been to a monster jam. I took the kids to one at the Pontiac Silverdome while the wife was out of town and they had a great time. They also like the demolition derby and tractor pulls at the fair. I've brought the kids to those several times over the years.

the tires used on the monster trucks are from farming equipment, mainly turf sprayers. they're so wide to give the equipment a low footprint when it's driving over the ground so it won't ruin the turf. they use them on monster trucks because they're very soft and are a flotation tire. some of the tread is cut off to lighten them and to give them a more aggressive look. they're actually used as part of the suspension on the trucks, because they help to absorb some of the impact from landings.

Better off, they might get damaged when they ship with the vehicle. Make sure you have something to cover the woofers when you pack em, and don't forget to take the fuse out before you unplug the subs. You could fry the amp is it grounds out.

you talking about the main one that we replaced? or outta the amp?
