litl_e_fan Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Kinda irrelevant but yesterday was the 10 year anniversary of Larry Quick's first backflip in Ghost Ryder, the first successfully landed one at a live event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRetroStyle Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Monster Jam has officially made the announcement on who will attempt to clear 7 trucks, and let's just say......you may or may not be surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
litl_e_fan Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Remember when Monster Jam announced they wouldn’t be using freestanding cars anymore? Surprisingly, nobody seemed to ask what would happen for concrete shows. If I didn’t already have plans for tomorrow, I’d make the hour-and-a-half drive this watch this hilarity unfold.

Im kind of intrigued by the idea honestly. The obstacles will be consistent at least. I would go to see how it all unfolds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackMProductions Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Some highlights from the first monster truck show in Aloha Stadium in over 20 years. I'll update this post with clips from tonight's show once it happens. May 4th May 5th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EightBitMS Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 As weird as it was, the all concrete show in Manchester UK actually kinda worked. The drivers were able to do more poppers than on just cars and from the clips on Instagram, it looked like they could get some bigger air. Would I replace dirt and the hybrid pad with it? No. Would I replace concrete and cars with it? Possibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't buy arena football tickets expecting to see an NFL quality game or long bomb passes down field because the venue doesn't support that. Obviously an arena is much smaller than a football or soccer stadium (yes I know that's advertised on the promo videos) so I mean people gotta use a little common sense here. That being said, from the videos I saw, it didn't look close to being up to par with current day arena shows. But you can't blame FELD as I'm sure they were told to not bring dirt in, and not using cars for a safety concern (don't nice lady at safety. An accident with debris into the crowd could drastically ruin this for all of us) really puts them in a box with what they can do. I think they made the most of what they could. I'm sure a year from now different approaches to concrete shows with no cars will improve along with the quality of the shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outlawed Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Making the most of what you can is irrelevant when you promote something as being one thing and it turns out being something completely different. FELD made no effort to mention the changes (forced or by choice) and appeared to be content with just presenting it with the hope it would be passable (or atleast what is current made public about the situation). also avenger scheme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaxen Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Am I the only one who is disapointed with the layout of the track? Yes, I like the elevated ramps, but no fountain, no cars, no anything special. Other than for those ramps, it looks like a generic track. Would've liked to see a few more special elements. Also, the fact that Stinger didn't get in the Double Down Showdown pisses me off. He has been really impressive and talented, he absolutely deserves a shot in the DDS. Instead they put Kraken, who finished 12th in his series? The lineup is the most disapointing one in a long time to me. I dont think it will be a bad show, but the lineup isn't the best they could've done.
