Exactly how many minitruckers can you fit into the Texas Ski Ranch in New Braunfels, Texas? Apparently a lot more than it's designed to hold. The 5th Annual Meltdown, which was thrown by PEvents and Vertically Challenged, pulled out all the stops and packed the park chock-full. We've been hitting this show for years, watching it gradually fill out the respectful shoes we always knew it deserved. This year, it was kickin'.
Thanks, guys! We had a great time. Fellow minitruckers: Add this show to your schedule for next year, as well as all the great events these guys put on each year. For information about this, or any of their other shows, contact Johnny Perales at (512) 947-3999, or visit www.killershow.com.
