Monster Trucks hit UAE this weekend (video)
Check out the crazy Monster Jam in Abu Dhabi on Friday
By Shahzad Sheikh
Head down to the Zayed Sports City Stadium this Friday afternoon (May 10) to see these mad monster trucks in action at the first Monster Jam show event.
Ten of the craziest machines you’re ever likely to see will be crushing cars and buses, leaping over stuff and generally causing mayhem
They’ve got suitably outstanding names too. Fresh from the Monster Truck World Finals in Las Vegas a month ago, the UAE is hosting Max D, Iron Man, Spiderman, Superman, GraveDigger, MonsterMutt and others.
How’d they get here? The metre-wide tyres had to be replaced with thinner tractor tyres just to drive them on to containers!
The whole of Zayed Sports City Stadium has had to be re-landscaped to accomodate the show with 300 dump trucks full or dirt and sand having moulded an amazing new course for the Trucks.
And if you don’t manage to get down there, you can catch the action on TV on Abu Dhabi Sports TV.
