National Diesel Drag Races

Hello everyone, we've been in Edmonton for the weekend. We spent Saturday at the National Diesel Drag Races at the airport raceway and spent today (Sunday) at the waterpark at the West Edmonton Mall. No pictures of that however seeing as how we were both blasting down waterslides all day. This first picture is from the burnout compition that they had partway through the races.

This picture doesn't do this car justice. When you hear this car burning down the track your jaw instantly drops. When we post clips of it later, your jaw too will also drop in awe.

Were thinking of selling the Volkswagen in Newfoundland and buying one of these. I wouldn't mind doing a few burnouts in this. I'm sure Keenan wouldn't have a problem with that either.

Make a wish had three little boys at the races and one of them got to ride in this car. This car had so much power that when it started along the track the front wheels left the ground. That kid got the ride of a lifetime.

And last but not least Keenan and I getting our sunburn on in the stands. Were staying with Ty and Brittney for the weekend and Ty's Uncle had a diesel in one of the races, so we got invited back to his trailer and got to check out the truck, that actually has a roll cage.
