Josh Rhodes- Wreckless Intent

I'm just going to cut right to the chase here. As a group, we at Sim-Monsters have decided to not run a 3rd season of the Sim-Monsters Racing Series. Many reasons have contributed to this, but the main reason is the fact that some of us aren't as young as we used to be and honestly don't have the time nor the patience to run an entire series anymore. Instead, the Sim-Monsters staff has sat down and discussed another option that i really think benefits everyone here on the site and other people looking to start up racing leagues. Sim-Monsters.com is going to become kind of like what MTM2Draggers was for its existence. For those that don't know or did not compete in MTM2, Draggers was a place where multiple racing leagues had their forums. Everyone could post about their series in their own forum. A few things will be different though from Draggers: Certain leagues ran by people that we here at Sim-Monsters believe we can trust will be sanctioned by Sim-Monsters.com and become an official series. They will run a Sim-Monsters-style points system, and run basically the same rules. They will be ran the way the owner wants them to be ran, but they must run the SM Point system and our rulebook to become an official series. Why must they do that? Because official Sim-Monsters sanctioned leagues will be part of one giant overall points system. As drivers compete throughout the year in any series their points will be tallied in the leagues individual points as well as the Sim-Monsters.com Grand Championship points. By the end of the year, we will have one Grand Champion, as well as several individual series points champions as well. We are happy to announce that the first series to become a Sim-Monsters sanctioned series is ROR Outlaws ran by Mark Colineri. This league is the first of its kind in ROR, a budget based league. With the budgeting system in place, it will force drivers to drive their trucks realistically and think before they crossthread that big stack in freestyle that might roll them over. Were proud of Mark to accept our offer, and for his league to become the first official Sim-Monsters series. Sim-Monsters.com will also sanction all the special events through the year including Fall Madness, Allmonsters Eve, and maybe a few more throughout the beginning and middle of the year. We understand that people were looking forward to Season 3, but in all honesty this seems to be the better direction for the site to be headed in. We had very big plans for Season 3 and beyond, but knowing how many signups we were going to have, knowing we'd be running booked events instead of open qualifying events, we knew it would require an overall ton of effort from all of us to make sure our events remained at the high quality and standard that they have lived up to in the past. Its time for us to pass the torch so to speak to those that want a shot to step up and run their own events. Thank you.

You can show me that Lupe freestyle all you want to David, the fact of the matter is that had i been incharge of Lupe while he was running at that show i woulda shut him off to and made him stay parked right there. You bring that incident up, and i'll bring up Dana Creech in Monster Mutt doing an end over end rollover. Similar incidents and Dana wasn't allowed to continue like he shouldn't have been. I'm honestly sick of hearing people complain about something that was done in their freestyles or a competitors freestyle wanting to know why they weren't shut off or told to stop. Its a heat of the moment decision, just like in real life. If you can't live with that, then do not race with us anymore. That goes out to everybody, not just you David.

Thats just basically Adams truck with a Digger body. I believe this was made by someone but never released. If you want something close to it, download Outlawed's Grave Digger on a Cohen chassis.

http://www.twitch.tv/sealedgecko Trying to live stream this tonight at that link. No sounds, so it is what it is. Watch if you'd like.

My apologies for qualifying going so long. I didn't expect it to take that long at all. We will have the chat up on AIM ASAP, just a few more people left.

Qualifying all the officials and locked in drivers right now. Chat will be up as soon as they are qualified.

My AIM: JoshDIGRhodes

A few Notes on Tonight: All Custom trucks must be uploaded onto Sim-Monsters.com before you qualify It is your responsibility to message me to qualify for Fall Madness, i will not hunt you down on aim. If you message me on aim and i don't respond right away, its because i'm qualifying another person at that time. I will get to you as soon as i can. When you message me, you will be given the game IP and Port Number. If you cannot connect to the server, its on your end. You will have one opportunity to fix the problem, if you do not connect you will receive a DNQ(Did Not Qualify). Please enter the game under your REAL NAME, not an alias or your Sim-Monsters screen-name. Racing and Freestyle rules and regulations will be announced in the drivers meeting before the actual race, i will not go over the rules/regulations prior to qualifying. The only thing you as a driver needs to remember during qualifying is hit all the jumps and avoid the poles.

Sim Monsters Presents: Fall Madness on December 1st 2012 Event History: This event was in MTM2's hayday our &quot;Daytona 500.&quot; Everyone wanted to win this event and it certainly did its fair share of making Stars in the MTM2 world. Last year, it did just the same in ROR as Danny Mackey shocked everyone by coming in and winning on the Classic 4 Leaf Clover style racing course. Its an event that some of the best in the history of Online Monster Truck Racing have yet to win. This season, a new racing course from the mind of Danny Mackey is being brought into play as well as a different freestyle layout. It should be a very entertaining event to watch! Qualifying opens: 4:30cst Qualifying closes 5:45cst Racing begins: 6:10cst The top 20 qualifyers will be the field of trucks for the event. Sim-Monsters Champions will be locked into the field as well as winners from last years Fall Madness.

About time Matt, haha. They look so much better now, can't wait to see them on the trucks that currently have goodyear tires.

Sponsors come, sponsors go. Alex Blackwell will fit so much better driving Curse, than he ever did driving Wolverine.

To echo what everybody else said: Practice, and throttle control. You have to really learn how to throw a truck into the corner to properly do it.

.............................................. Oh. . sorry. I was going to type something but got lost in the pure awesomeness that is Grave Digger 7.

I'm kind of shocked to hear that from you Wes. Abominations? I challenge anybody to come out and create anything as realistic as what those guys did with those trucks. According to our sources within the industry these trucks drive and handle exactly as they would in real life with very few exceptions. V3 is an abomination compared to this pack. As far as stolen models go, honestly i'm sick of hearing that. In the MTM2 community models were re-worked all the time. If someone can take your work, and make it a little better or use it on something different, who honestly cares as long as it benefits the entire community? Thats my view on it, and the view of the Sim-Monsters staff. If you do not like it, i suggest your stay here be a short one.

Show them if you got them!

If you want to find them just look for my channel ACDCFan38 or my friend MrDestruction21. Plenty of clod racing videos on both those channels.
