they’re still around. occasionally I’ll see them on ESPN2 or something. it’s the pro wrestling of motorsports - but a lot of corn-dog-eatin’, mullet-wearin’, bud-light-swillin’ fun to go to one. big, dumb, and a great time.
Yeah… They also had a “train” on tank treads it was flippin’ sweet.
And they are shown on the Speed Channel on the weekends I think, I’m not sure of the time, but it used to be a sure thing during the week at like 6PM-7PM. Then things changed
Now theyre all stupid looking fiberglass bodies with arms and teeth and stuff.
They used to be real trucks jacked up on tractor tires.
I still have a tape off ESPN from '86 or so with the real monster trucks. It also has swamp buggy races on it. My mom taped it for me when I was 5 and its still in the vcr cabinet.
