Behind the Scenes - SPECIAL LAS VEGAS 2009
You will see on this page pictures from our trip to Las Vegas for the World Finals. On the road Driving to Vegas is a long trip. It takes about 36 hours from Michigan, if there is no problems on the way.  
We were in the middle of nowhere and trucks were low fuel. We saw signs for diesel fuel so we got off the expressway to fill up... but we saw that wonderful sign(NO TRUCK AND TRAILER)... So we found a spot down the road to park, and on foot we took fuel jugs to be able to fill the trucks. and then to make this worste, when we arrived at the pump another wonderful sign(OUT OF DIESEL).... haha!  
The road / Steve, Stephanie, Lindsey & Kiel, by the Cadillacs in Amarillo  
Because the pressure changed on the road, this bag of chips almost exploded!  
At work Steve, putting "tire shine" before the photoshoot / Jim, welding on Brutus  
Jeff, getting the Avenger ready for the show / Kiel, filling the truck  
Stephanie, putting the plates to hold the wheel tether/ Chris, fixing his truck  
Jeff, checking all the bolts / Chris, not really working, but I thought it would be funny to put it on here!  
Chris' photoshoot It started serious...  
An then became a little crazy!!!!  
Trucks and trailer... The four trucks, and the trailer / Because we had a show in Ohio the weekend before we came to Las Vegas, Avenger & Brutus' bodies were back on the old trucks  
For the practice, we had to take the bodies off Avenger, Brutus, and Wrecking Crew. Steve, Kiel, and the rest of the crew worked hard to make everything fit in the trailer!!!
