Trailer Racing from rv.net

Anothe rv.net transplant, but it is definitely must-see viewing. No, that is not a track in WV either!!!

Wow, that is scary stuff, no 3/4-1ton units towing 5er's much less Montana's. So, driving around a figure 8 would anyone in their right mind want to crash through a crossing TT in their path???
Answer = No...maybe others have uncontrolled road rage....?

Looks like there were a few with more shackle problems. Seems to be going around.

Kinda reminds me of driving down here in Clearwater/Largo in Florida. Some of our intersections can be darn near the same only down here they do clean up the wrecks.

Actually it was just drivers' training at a new RV Driving School I opened.
The voice-over was done later to make it more exciting and to not frighten away future customers.
It is also a good proving ground for component hardiness.

Looks to me like it did when the wife and I hauled FEMA trailers out of the Wakarusa Indiana area down into the Gulf Coast area right after Katrina! We were paid by the run. The quicker we got on down in a staging yard, the quicker we could get another.

With that many misses, how is it possible for us to hit something like a yellow colored bollard at the gas station??
