Hoping it's a good show, looks like Mother Nature won't damper it like last year (even though I skipped this year) Must have qualified last night. Straight into round 1. Track is to slippery. Turn before cars is way to tight. 2 penalies so far for missing ramp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of basing it off last week stome crusher and hooked are just as loud if a lil bit louder then the mufflers. Sound a helluva lot better too. Oh well, also it looks like the dirt was intended for rain. Its looks gravely and extremely dusty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRetroStyle Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 France Highlights: Chad Tingler and Cynthia Gauthier attempted their first backflips; neither came out successful, although Cynthia came close. Alx Danielsson may be a potential nominee for Crash Madness next year after a wild crash in his freestyle. Becky McDonough almost repeated her World Finals racing crash in Freestyle. Only difference is that she didn't shred the body the process, and the front end was totaled, but not snapped apart. Bari Musawwir took the Overall win, which included a Racing victory over Neil Elliott in the finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornetguy97 Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Tom recovered it, 3rd hit. Ran into wall. Took the lead. Fan judging wrong here. Adam took lead, best run ive seen live. Didnt move truck what a show, ryan gave it 100% redemption from last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double.D ッ Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 For anyone wondering why Tom was shut off and not allowed to refire, here's why. https://www.facebook.com/deltondowker/videos/10156364836197576/ I've only ever worked arena shows, but in every meeting I've been in its made clear that as soon as chunks of dirt go into the crowd, you're done.

That could be true in arenas but i can remember West lebanon 2016 Adam through tons of mud into the crowd and wasnt shut off, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not even close to muddy in Nashville, and the trucks can sling huge chunks of dirt into the stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Politeness Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Attendance honestly hasn't improved much since last year from what I saw (hell I'm positive I saw the seats I got last year were unoccupied). Dunno if it will improve or if that's enough to comp the costs of the show, but a part of me feels that's not a good sign for future shows.

MasonThompson Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Went to a Throwdown show last night. Rain threatened the show. Stands were still pretty full, not close to last year but still. Just a reminder that tickets for throwdown shows are $25 each seat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Richardson Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 On that Tom Meents clip, a giant clump of dirt flew into the stands and hit a young child on the head. You can actually see it happen on the left side of the screen and you can see the father and child screaming and panicking. I heard it was described almost as a rock hard substance, and if that's true, that is very dangerous. Could have been another Natural High incident but I am glad nothing came of it.

Nick Migues Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I dont get why everyone hates mufflers, personally i love them. They sound good, and theyre nice and quiet which is nice when youre the one driving, especially going in and out of the trailer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually hurts sometimes. I've been to a few junk car races and the mud they kicked up would go into the stands a few times and it feels like plastic BB pellets hitting you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
