Ice road Truckers 3
« on: 13 September 2009, 23:53:27 »
Trucker hell
anyone seen it?
This time they are not in Canada, they are in Alaska,
well Alex & huge are anyway, theres also a nice young petit Blonde lass called Lisa driving.
I would love to have a go in Canada and drive on the ice roads, But theres No bloody chance I would even try the Alaska road, 500 miles of mountians and they go over and round most of them,
I might be Crazy but I'm not suicidal.
I have driven on my fair share of snow covered and iced roads with an artic but that what they are doing even for $120k for just 12 weeks No way

No it was on the history channel so I could not watch it on tv,
but I did a google search and found a couple of pages that you can watch it on line Free.

I would also give it a go in canada but theres no chance I would try the stretch in Alaska

the 1st series was the best, but dont like the look of that road.

i'd like to see a real profile of it instead of dodgy camerawork mind  :y

they spray it with water 1st to ice it up, so they have a smooth road  :o

Just snow would not be a problem, the road is 2" thick ice, they have to get top speed before they hit the bottom and try and get up the other side,
55 or 60mph dawn a bloody steep hill covered in ice is not my idea of fun
