Wife was even more excited then me to go.




Got up close to the rigs before the show



We were at the end of the arena so they were comeing at us when they made their runs over the cars.


But we had a great view for the donut competition, sorry no sound with the video

Click here to watch thunder-nationals056

would have liked to have gotten better pics or video of this


and we were right behind the pit area, so we got to watch them wrench on the rigs between runs



And the best part is the tickets and pit passes were free. Got them from the radio morning show I listen to on 101.1 and 100.3 up here.

Yep..lol, one of our morning shows, called Breakfast television on City (our Channel 7)...anyway, someone drove one of the female co-hosts cars to the SkyDome, now called the Rogers Centre, where Jam is being held. Her Civic was lined up with the wrecked cars and GraveDigger was in the background threatning to crush her beloved black Civic coupe...lol

They drove it away when the Jam staff couldnt promise the car wouldnt be damaged.

That looks like a good time! I haven't been to one of those in years. I am also wanting to check out a motocross race. I even contemplated going to RedBud in Buchanan, Michigan for the 4th of July. We use to go there every year. I wonder if there might be an event coming to Memphis- hmmm, I'll have to check on that.
