Horsepower meets the mud...

A mud slingin' fun time was had by spectators , hobby trucks and huge mean monster trucks at Seney Mud Bogg in Cedartown ,Ga , this past weekend . The dirt road entrance opened up to an estimated 4,000 fans , mud boggers or just anyone wanting to see some Georgia dirt get thrown !  Spectators are able to enjoy this action from a few feet distance almost all the way around , close enough that the first bog run near me left some mud on my face ! The scene was laid back ,with people tailgating , kicking back near the fence or piled in the bed of their truck watching the fun from the parking area.


Plenty of mud slinging was going on all day , with multiple trucks rippin' it up together in the bogg's , testing their limits at this big muddy playground . As the Seney Mud Bogg website says " Seney Mud Bogg features 17 mud boggs,some of the best in Georgia. The boggs range from Hobby truck to Monster truck size."  I have to say , it was a nice set up , plenty of parking , awesome spectating area's, staff willing to help you out and courteous enough to wet the dirt road keeping the dust off spectators.
I stayed busy shooting all the dirty action...and cleaning my lens about every 30 sec's haha, watching for the next wide open pass that would send a wave of mud in the air or good ole' donut's slinging mud a 100 feet in the air.



The muddy entertainment stayed going all day , up to the point of some "Hill and Hole" action , which brought out some of the big guns . The "Hill in Hole" is (video below) basically like a single timed race from A to B , but the area in between is no joke ! The first truck nose dived into the trench that slammed with a force of a headbutt to the dash kinda hit. Full throttle off a jump into a trench of water and thick mud , which leads to another jump and trench where most had a hard time getting out of , but many did and they did it with awesome power ,speed and skilled driving ! All in all , I had a blast and plan to go back whenever possible. This is one of those events you can really just kick back enjoy yourself and watch the action with friends .
