Does anybody else out there like Monster Trucks? Because it looks like nobody else does, I have some nice pics of the Monster Jam Event I went to last month

You might want to resize them or change 'em to thumbnails, it'll make it slightly easier to see and easier on 56k'ers

Nah, I don't like them that much.. On the TV it's ok to watch but not more.. I prefer normal races and drift events..

Ain't nothin' better than watching a big truck destroy everything under it....

I like 'em. Got any more pics?

Topgear once got a nun to drive a monster truck..

Yeah, that was the best

I've got pics of a Black Escalade Monster Truck with Spinners, Purple Neons, T.Vs and A Gi-Flippin'Normous Sound System

It's low quality but here it is:

It was hard to get a clear pic of it, since it was moving, but it's the best I've got

Yep, monster trucks are a really fun breed of motorsports. Heads up racing, and freestyle events make for fun nights at coliseums and other locations.

Personally, though, the interest has sagged a little with the popularization of fiberglass shell bodies. I miss the more "production" appearance of some of the classic monster trucks of the 80's.

A few of my favorites.....

Wild Hair

Bear Foot

Mad Dog

USA-1

 

[High-Test]

Bearfoor and USA 1 were classical!

Who hasn't built a USA-1 model?

I, too think the production bodies should be brought back, even if the ride is alot stiffer.

The one that was a 1950 Chavy was amazing.

 

[Joey D]

Haha I have the USA-1 model.

But really what is a monster truck thread with out mention Big Foot?

 

[High-Test]

Bob Chandler rules.

It's too bad they don't use Bigfoot I or II anymore, those were the best looking.

 

[benzoboy]

Which BigFoot was it that has had those Gi-F'kin-Normous wheels?

Was it BigFoot 7?

Can y'all post a pic?

 

[benzoboy]

Got it, it's Bigfoot 5:

Bigfoot II was cool,

I think it's funny they raced Bigfoot Against a paddle-wheeler!

 

[benzoboy]

I just thought that this would be the best thread to ask, which is your favourite Monster Truck?

Mine is 'Grave Digger'

Observe...
