Marvel did not sign on with Monster Jam for 2015. All Marvel themed monster trucks are nada.

Gary is slated to be in Carolina Crusher for 2015.

Colton Eichelberger is driving Grave Digger #25, and Randy Brown is driving Grave Digger #29. Here's an updated list of Digger drivers/trucks just so everyone knows... Grave Digger #23 - Carl Van Horn Grave Digger #24 - Chad Tingler Grave Digger #25 - Colton Eichelberger Grave Digger #26 - Jon Zimmer Grave Digger #27 - Charlie Pauken Grave Digger #28 - Pablo Huffaker Grave Digger #29 - Randy Brown Grave Digger #30 - Dennis Anderson I still have to get in contact with Gary Porter about what his plans are for 2015, but as far as I know, he's not driving a Grave Digger for 2015. And I know for a fact that Whit Tarlton won't be driving Monster Mutt for 2015, either. Well, as it is with some other promoters, they would only look for the trucks that are more profitable or more popular on a team. Maybe they will eventually announce Park Patrol running with them, but if they only have one announced, then more than likely they're just sticking with Quad Chaos for the sake of popularity. Plus, it's cheaper on the promoter and team to travel with just one truck. Saves them some major MPGs.

There's already been numerous posts about it on Facebook. It's not news anymore.

I just find it funny how two different trucks crashed in the same lane in around the same spot in the same stadium two years in a row (being Grinder and Madusa in Philly at The Linc 2011 and 2012).

It's for Knucklehead. It's getting a 3D skull body (which in my opinion doesn't look that good).

It was a rather violent wreck, but it pales in comparison to some of the other ones I've seen.

That's just what I heard. It could change.

Runte's supposed to get #21 with the retro body.

I think it's going to be a good event. Hampton has a nice floor space to work with when it comes to the track they have planned out for this year's event, so I imagine it being pretty darn good. Plus, each driver on the tour has an immense amount of testing when it comes to this particular track design, so I think it'll be a doozy.

Well, seeing as Hampton, VA is the unofficial start to the 2015 season for Monster Jam, we can still kind of consider it "Minny weekend" because it's the first weekend of December. But is okay, is okay. We can start the stockpile of speculations early.

"so called"... ha.

Well yeah, because it is truly one of the worst wrecks in monster truck history. It wasn't posted with the intentions of joking this time around, seeing as it was really a bad thing. At least, I hope it wasn't posted with intentions of stupid joking...

Scott Stephens drove King Krunch in that crash. He was fine.

It is Steven in Equalizer (a.k.a. Apples in Equa-Force).

It's just the fact that there's pure steel involved. Instead of a braided ring that could easily break or sheer due to the amount of pressure and abuse it can be put under when a spindle does break clean off, the steel plate has been proven to be tougher. As I said, look at how hard Travis Petri and Steven Thompson run. Testimonials to how tough this newer system is. Dan Patrick uses this system when building axles. Petri got this system from Patrick because Dan built Petri's whole truck.

Whoever is the points champion on the Monster Jam 2015 Arena Tour will earn the 31st spot in the World Finals line up, while the champion of the Young Guns Shootout (which will also now consist of 16 trucks) will earn the 32nd spot.

That's why there are wheel restraint systems in place. The tether system has its flaws, but the fixed disc restraint has proved to be the best option. Travis Petri and Steven Thompson are prime examples as to why the fixed disc is starting to outshine the tether.

Yeah, this picture definitely shows that it has to be a Truk Wurks Off Road chassis.

Inside joke. Hence the winky face.

That's a great looking transfer case...

It's funny because Jill is still heavily involved in motorsports and does shows alongside monster trucks a few times every year.

Backflip jumps are cool, and backflips are still cool to watch and execute. I still don't see why everyone is pooting a brick over a backflip jump. It's optional for drivers to do, so it's not like Feld or any promoter is PUSHING them to do backflips. Yes, Feld will say it trucks are "backflip approved", but that doesn't mean that a driver is required to do one. But that's just my opinion, of course.

1.) Those tires you see in the screenshot are add-on tires made by Klayton Halog (RockCrwlr). They're his cut EcoWork tire models. They can be found and downloaded here. 2.) What I usually do is download a truck's zip folder, open it, then extract all of the files within it into the V4 truck pack, wherever you may have that placed. I personally have my V4 truck pack as an open folder within my "vehicles" folder, so I can add files and take files out of there without the "Compressing..." window popping up. 3.) I guess that just depends on what kind of graphics card you're running in your computer. Hope this helps. Message me or respond here if you need anything else.
