Nevada state fair commercial - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

Nick Koan · 2004-08-25, 11:05 PM

Anyone else notice that the photochopped Subaru (as a monster truck) somehow wormed its way into the Nevada State Fair Commercial?

In case anyone is wondering, its in a collage of monster trucks in the lower left corner of the screen.

I'll see if I can dig up the picture.

ArthurS · 2004-08-26, 09:06 AM

I'll have to go find that ad

I was wondering when that was gonna show up on here!

Where'd you get the picture? Is that the original that the commercial stole, or did someone screen cap the TV?

Hinklestein: a concrete barrier used to keep tanks on the road when traveling between training area in Germany. They're like 90% below the ground (think iceberg), so the 2' or so above ground is *extremely* strong. They line some of the stages in the Germany Rally. When a WRC car hits one, it can cause the cage to fail, so the resulting roll over does this to the car:

The in-car footage is downright scary.
