VIDEO: Monster trucks thrill the crowds

12:41am Saturday 7th November 2009 in


Some of the world’s most powerful monster trucks were in action at a spectacular event in Bradford last night.

The stunt extravaganza was at the Grattan Stadium, Odsal. Spectators were able to marvel at the awesome 2,000 horse power of the monster trucks.

Meanwhile, motocross freestyle experts put on an entertaining show, performing stunts in which they flew through the air (pictured above).

And a special guest was former stunt riding legend Eddie Kidd (right).

The night culminated with an inspiring fireworks display from Aurora Pyrotechnics, one of the leaders in the field of outdoor displays.

Simply fantastic and it looked a complete sell-out despite the cold & wet, and for a family of 4 it was £30 better spent on attending this show than wasted money on 5 second fireworks, 10/10 Odsal Stadium!

It was an amazing night and well worth £10. The funniest bit was definately when one of the monster trucks caught fire... twice!

A half page ad in the T&A and bill posters all over the place, 1st 4,000 tickets got free entry into the grandstand!

Yeah it would be nice to have Stock Car racing back or even Speedway!
