They were burning rubber Friday at Nodland Elementary. The world's youngest monster truck drivers stopped by at the school to pay a visit to Hunter Rosaver.
Hunter won a online competition put on by the Monster Truck Nationals. And according to the young monster truck driver, Hunter was a little shocked when he realized he had won.
"I think he was a little stunned we were here but after awhile he got used to it and I'm glad that we did come."
Hunter also won tickets to this weekend's Monsters and Magic Tour going on at the Tyson Events Center. If you're interested in going, it's Saturday at 7:30pm, with a pit party starting at 5:30.
