RKM Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Tom DID get shut off as he got closer to the wall, the momentum sent the truck back onto its wheels when he was clicked off. Best view yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outlawed Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 cool save yes but in reality he should have been RII'ed alot earlier. Double standards FTW 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thargo Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Wow, i'm speechless. I'm also surprised at how he just walked away with no injuries. By far, in my opinion, the best Max-D freestyle and best Monster Jam freestyle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patriotic Canadian Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 ok, that was the pain olympics of monster trucks who wants to estimate repair times? i'm guessing six days minimum, $20,000 in cost 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.Sommerfeld Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 man that was a rough ride, but man what a run. that roll save was great and about the RII thing; he was for like a moment or 2 before he took back off. Anyways crash madness award of 2011 anyeone lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Hopkins Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 It looks worse then it was, like stated 4 new 4 links fix the axle and just mount a bar up for the shocks and put new ones on when they get back to paxton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oggy Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I think roach's facebook post said it all after seeing tom's freestyle last night. i would like to see some independent truck NOT owned by feld do that and see if they get RII'ed and told they were done. plus how about giving these independent trucks a chance at the world finals? they work so much harder than any feld team to get their truck out there every weekend. GIVE SOME RESPECT TO THE INDEPENDENTS. The nice thing is, Feld hasn't loveed up the IHRA yet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler0983 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I think tom's run was great. RII was not needed in that situation. I can tell you how I feel, and I'll tell it straight. When you go to a monster jam show, or any monster truck show for that matter you expect wild action. I give the officals an A+ on their desicions because they knew Tom's driving style and knew what he could do. Tom's done lower level stuff like this in the past, think wf6 encore when he drove the truck on it's roof or Jax 2008 when he brought the truck back on it's wheels after a complete barrel roll. Who's to say we can tell the officals what to do? If you don't like it, don't go to a show. The officals are trained on when and when not to shut off a truck. In my opinion, the reason they don't shut off people like Meents or Anderson is they know what they are and aren't capable of. People like Steve Kohler or Rich Hilgendorf they don't always get to see week in and out. It's all in expierence, and judgement is the bottom line. Like it or not. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
