Sergeant Politeness Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Also keep in mind FELD has made some budget cuts AND canned Ringling Bros. Something tells me that buying a stadium with their current situation would not be fiscally wise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp2013 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 if FELD can't afford to purchase the stadium they probably would want to stay south with the even and still find a open air stadium that has the horseshoe shape that you can continue the vegas J hook racing. if any place comes to mind it would be Baylor's McLane stadium. they look similar and have a great capacity.

MonsterJam2008 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 The L.A. Coliseum would be great, huge capacity and can be set up with Vegas style track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Politeness Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I feel like a lot of you aren't accounting for the massive amount of land needed to hold the massive pit party. The beauty of SBS is that it's basically in the middle of nowhere, meaning tons of area for a massive pit party needed for the World Finals.

mdemko Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Purchasing a stadium, even an old one, costs a lot of money. The idea that Feld would buy the venue is ludicrous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In those 4 years a lot of things regarding that situation could and will change. The Raiders are expected to play in Oakland for at least 2 more years and the stadium should be done by 2020.

Yeah, it will be open in time for the 2020 NFL season, which would start in September 2020, so the first World Finals would be 2021. Atlanta's new stadium broke ground in May of 2014, and it will open in August of this year, so that would be 3 years from ground breaking to opening. They have yet to break ground in Las Vegas, and assuming it takes the same amount of time, it own;t be open in time for the 2020 World Finals.

Justin Sipes won his tour on his VERY FIRST season behind the wheel of a monster truck. That's a massive accomplishment! Why wasn't he recognized instead of Camden?

Hagan Moskau Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 The thing about the new stadium is that it has 360 degrees worth of space all around the stadium for pit parties. The problem is that the floor size is no bigger than the Mercedes Benz Superdome size, being on the floor all the time for 15 years. Now the Superdome floor size is bigger than most of the indoor stadiums. I have to say though, they should add this stadium to their stadium tour, cause this venue is sick!

Tylinater Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 As great as that front-flip was, I personally don't think it should've won. I thought that we were past these "one trick wonder" freestyle runs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When its something as sick as a clean as f*ck front flip, it 100% deserves to win. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did it without the assistance of a specialty ramp like Max D had which was awesome but that run as a whole shouldn't have beat out the rest. Elliot and Koehler had better overall runs than O'Donnell. Compared to O'Donnell, they both beat him in every aspect (Momentum, air, tech). Sounds to me like you're saying that O'Donnell should win because of ONE move, that ONE move defines a freestyle. That's like saying that Jim Jack should win because he did a lucky move even though the freestyle was lack luster. If the judges are going to decide the champion off one lucky move then might as well make a monster jam best trick competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee did the First clean front flip and landed it. remember Cam Mcqueen pulling off that first backflip in competition? same as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
