This stuff makes me want to live in Canada.

Talk about dangerous though. Spectators are like 8 ft. away from 80k hauling ass right by them. Just sayin.
 
^ yeah not the safest lol. A bunch of drunk spectators right next to the track, but it looks like a blast.
 
They r pretty bad ass I watch one Guy took off wheel up and broke both drive shafts and the carrier bearing and universal feel out under the truck LOL
 
To see one of dem truck rodeos in person is definetly on my "bucket list". That clip from the 2007 one is some crazy junk. If you wouldn't have posted it, I would have found it and put it up. I LOVE that clip!
 
Eric Bouchard........look that up on YouTube. That was him in the 2007 clip. And that's not just 80k loads. They will pull up to 170k in the different classes. Every diesel enthusiest should make this event. It happens every year called the Rodeo du Caimon. Most trucks come from the Quebec area. I have lots of family there and they build some crazy trucks up there. The OG Crazy Cajuns! Lots of beer drinking goes on there too. Steven.
 
I attended the rodeo du camion in 09 and it was the best time ive had. The red and gold truck is driven by Nicholas Gagnon and is the same truck as the maroon and silver one. Its a cat c15 acert 2 with a Custom Cigma hanging on it. In the finals when they r hauling triples they are 210,000 in the wagon. That track is the main street in the town of Notre Dame De Nord and they shut the town down for this event. The population swells from 1500 to 60,000 plus for this 3 day event.
 
I go every year, greatest event ever. It's pretty much a huge party, the event is sponsored by coors light.

If anyone plans on going they should camp in the camp grounds, lots of good people and partying.

There are plenty of these events in Quebec but Notre Dame is the only event where people speak english because it's right on the Ontario/Quebec border.

Nicolas Gagnons truck AKA Coga is estimated to have 2500hp and he never opens the hood.
