How freaking fierce is this crash!? A Class 1 buggy came off a big bump right next to the Vest Racing trophy truck, slamming it with just the right force and angle to send it careening into next week. Photog Eric Minks was perfectly positioned to shoot a whole roll of the action.

Minks' company takes at off-road events all over the place and nailed some great ones at last week's Mint 400 outside Las Vegas. Don't unless you want to get sucked in to a glorious gallery of off-road racing for the rest of your night. If you can't resist, scroll a ways down to captured up close from to .

There's video too, but so far this is the only recording I've been able to find. Not the best, but it captures the insanity of the accident:

The Vest Racing team is based out of Molalla, Oregon and I'm happy to report pilots Troy and Geno walked away from this wreck unscathed. As for their truck, says: "A arms bent, trailing arms destroyed, fuel cell ruined, tranny broken, frame damaged and not a piece of undamaged fiberglass left."
