Pretty dang good show to wrap things up for Houston!

All but one of the drivers who substituted last week will continue to substitute for the same trucks this week. Macey Nichter will not substitute, as Kayla Blood is back in El Toro.

Steve Sims will drive Rod Ryan tomorrow and Sunday in Houston....idk why Brad Allen isn't driving it but that's a strange move on their part.

THEY'VE DONE IT!!!!

Dang, looked like he completely obliterated a few shocks there. Thank goodness he's okay.

Also, Mat DIshman won Racing AGAIN.....

...JUST FRICKIN' HOW!?

Two words for Tristan; watch out.

You guys did awesome this past weekend  Went to the Saturday night show and Trent came so close to winning ATV's. Jack did pretty good despite being out for Donuts and Freestyle, and I found it kinda funny how, at the end of Trent's freestyle, his last hit swept the entire body off all at once and it had to be dragged off the track by crew guys. It was a fantastic show and I had a lot of fun. Hope to see y'all compete again next year.

I think I was literally one row ahead and to the left of you. It was a great show.

Houston Results:

Racing Winner: Mat DIshman - Rammunition (HOW DID THIS HAPPEN!? HOW!?!?)

Two Wheel Skills Winner: Lee O'Donnell - VP Racing Fuel's Mad Scientist

Freestyle Winner: Ryan Anderson - Son-Uva Digger

Overall a great show but HOLY SMOKES, MAT!

Just got back from Newark, and here are my thoughts:

Racing - What seemed like a predictable outcome going into the final round at first suddenly turned when Colton Eichelberger screwed up in the Semis, allowing Tony Ochs to advance to the final round and take on Tyler Menninga. Other than that, nothing really crazy happened and the winner was Tyler Menninga.

Two Wheel Skills - Trent Montgomery got things starting off great with a moonwalk and a wheelie in Megalodon. His teammate, Jack Brown, broke off the Rottweiler's tail in a wheelie. Problems then broke out with the truck and the rookie was sadly done for the night afterwards (except for ATV and Speedsters). Colton Eichelberger was victorious in the end, pulling off a moonwalk that lasted about 10 seconds.

ATV Racing - Interesting results came with this one, as Trent Montgomery was one of the last two remaining in the black flag race with Colton Eichelberger. Max-D bested the shark, but I really gotta give kudos to Trent and his crew guys for that.

Donuts - The judging was WAY off with this one. I started to feel as if there were some people who were biased against certain competitiors, because Scooby-Doo and Megalodon had scores that were way too high. At least Bari Musawwir won, though.

Speedsters - There was an interesting turnout here. Myranda tumbled in her Round 1 race, and Trent and Colton collided in the Semis going into the first turn, resulting in that race having to be restarted. A lane violation on El Toro knocked Kayla out early on, moving Rotty up to the Semis. Colton took the win after beating Black Ops in the finals.

Freestyle - Of course, this competition did not disappoint. Kayla got things started but wrecked about halfway through. Trent followed afterwards and was able to pull off a great run, but towards the end, after a moonwalk, the body started going loose. On his final hit, he made like Bulldozer and knocked the entire body off, and crew guys dragged it off the track. Myranda had a decent run and almost had a save that would've rivaled Cole's in Orlando for best of the year so far. Bari had some nice air and knocked his tailgate off, Tony came so close to pulling off an incredible save, Colton went huge, and Tyler made the best out of having to back up multiple times. Menninga walked out as the Freestyle winner.

The Overall Event Champion was Colton Eichelberger in Max-D. A spectacular show for it being my first arena show, and I'm stoked for MetLife in May.

Excuse me, but am I watching Tristan England or Tyler Menninga?

I'm heading to Newark for the Saturday Evening show this weekend. Hoping you guys kill it out there!

San Antonio Show 2 Results
Racing Winner: Randy Brown - Grave Digger

Two Wheel Skills Winner: Lee O'Donnell - VP Racing Fuels' Mad Scientist

Freestyle Winner: Mike Vaters II - Overkill Evolution

Overall Event Champion: Lee O'Donnell - VP Racing Fuels' Mad Scientist

Mechanical problems plagued Scooby, Stallion, and Xtreme Diesel for almost the entire afternoon, and half of the field struggled in Two Wheels. Mikey deserved the Freestyle win and Lee had an awesome Two Wheel Skills run, but overall this show was......meh.

Also, Mike Christensen made it to the Final Round of Racing after an upset in the Semis......they should consider giving this guy a DDS invite, cause he's starting to deserve it.

Cole Venard may have just won Save of the Year. Insane save in the middle of his run.

EDIT: Welp, vid got taken down

ORLANDO RESULTS ARE IN:

Racing Winner: Jim Creten - Bounty Hunter

Two-Wheel Skills Winner: Tom Meents - Max-D

Freestyle Winner: Chuck Werner - El Toro Loco

Highlight of the Night: THE CRAZIEST BULL ON THE CREW FINALLY GOT THAT CORKSCREW NAILED!

As of the time of this post, I couldn't find out who the Overall Event Champ was, but my bet is Max-D.

GEEZ, HAYLEY

One sentence summary for each of the stadium shows this weekend:

Tampa - HOLY S**T THAT WAS AWESOME

Anaheim - Really surprised by several drivers, overall very good

Toronto (Show 1) - Glad I didn't go

Toronto (Show 2) - Not bad, but not really good either

As if the clips above weren't enough...

Seeing as how Marc is in Cleatus this year, they really have no excuse for snubbing him ONCE AGAIN.

Also, Overkill wins what was a very sloppy freestyle competition in Toronto. (The average truck either broke or crashed about a minute to a minute and a half in)

Chuck Werner wins Racing in Tampa. Atta boy!

Is it me or is the front of the hood of John Gordon's Scooby a bit shorter?

Sudden new truck announcement --- Black Pearl, to be driven by Cole Venard, in the Stadium Tour that is headed to Tampa this weekend, replacing Coty Saucier and Mutant.

That looks.....a lot better than I expected.

Tristan England, Tyler Menninga, Justin Sipes, and Pablo Huffaker took the very first Overall Event Championships of 2018. Very strong start for all four of them.
