    MTM Season 1 Q&A and Discussion Thread

    Question: Will more trucks be added to the list of trucks in case every truck is taken on the sheet, or will signups stop when every truck has a driver?

    Great question. Currently there are 24 competing regular season trucks. There are 12 sub trucks making the truck total 36. If every truck gets taken after the draft we will add more sub trucks and assign trucks to the left over drivers once the draft has concluded.

    Rockstar kinda bad, Bigfoot is aight, Those that you listed are the only "good" ones on the list. Not to mention some of the trucks on the list are poorly made. And half the ones you listed are already taken by the captains

    We are working with what we have. If you want to remake the "bad" trucks, that would be awesome. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

    Question regarding the draft: How will Team Captains decide who to draft? Like is it based on skill level, amount of experience, some sort of criteria or by random chance?

    Good question, Being a captain myself, I am looking for consistency and reliability. Just because you have been on the site for 10 years doesn't mean you deserve a spot. I cannot speak for the other 2 captains, but we will find out what the other captains have in mind come draft day. Good luck!

    Feel free to ask questions in regards to MTM Season One and I will get you the answers! If you have any concerns feel free to discuss them below. 

    Example: 

    QUESTION: How do signups work for MTM Season One?

    ANSWER: When you signup for MTM you will list your first and last name, discord, preferred truck, and if you are going to be submitting a headshot to one of our staff for season one. Once you complete those steps you will be in the draft list. Finally wait and hope you get drafted! (Draft will be livestreamed, more info can be found on the announcement thread)

    Which independent promotion will outshine the rest? Why don't you help decide! Make sure those belts are tight, because MTM Season 1 is about to TAKEOFF!

     

     

    SIGN UPS OPEN FEBRUARY 20TH @8:00 EST ON THE SIGNUPS THREAD (subject to change)

    KICKOFF SHOW/DRAFT DATE: March 20th LIVE on YOUTUBE @7:30 EST

    SEASON BEGINS: Sunday April 4th @7:30 EST. Regular Season Events will always be on Sundays @7:30EST (subject to change)

     

     

    This league consists of 3 series featuring some of the top independent monster truck promotions all over the United States. We run things a little bit differently here.. We don't stick to the traditional rules of leagues. Many competitors are used to signing up for a league and picking their own truck.. Well we are going to shake things up a little bit for MTM season one. When you sign up, you will be put into a draft list. There are 7 spots available for each series (not including the team captains). There will be a livestreamed kickoff show which will feature the MTM Draft. The team captain representing each series will draft 7 drivers to their series and assign them a truck. The draft will have 7 rounds in total. If you do not get drafted to the main 7, don't worry! Left overs will be drafted as subs and also assigned a truck. There will be 3 stops for each series over a 9 week period. We will switch off each week between series events. The top 4 in points after the 3 series events will move on to the World Finals at the Charlotte Dirt track to compete in a 12 truck competition. 4 trucks from each promotion will battle it out in Racing, Best Trick, and Freestyle to determine what promotion reigns supreme. Make sure you join the discord (Link at bottom of page)

    You have heard about these series a ton, but now lets learn what promotions made the cut and learn more about the upcoming season:

    1.         Toughest Monster Truck Tour/MonsterX           Team Captain: Tyler May driving Bigfoot
    2.         Monster Truck Throwdown                Team Captain: Mark Colineri driving Avenger
    3.         Malicious Monster Truck Tour            Team Captain: Vincent Akard driving Rockstar

     

    • 3 Individual Series consisting of 8 trucks
    • 3 events for each series
    • 9 events in total over 9 weeks
    • Series events trade off each week
    • Top 4 in points from each series qualify for World Finals
    • World Finals will have 12 trucks (4 from each series)
    • REPLICAS ONLY! (Replicustoms included!)
    • This is a fairly realistic league, so keep that in mind. Whatever has happened in real life in the series you end up on is how you judge what you can do. (ex. No Front Flips, Corkscrews, Bicycles around the stadium etc..)

     

    • We will be doing headshots (Driver Pictures) like real life, these are OPTIONAL, but we strongly suggest participating, unless you want to be Doomsday.

    Hello Everyone! This is my first ever build and paint. I spent a lot of time Hand Brushing this piece. It is near being done! I still have a lot of things to add. Please hold judgement to a minimum as I had to work around the v4 Cali Kid. Many things are being fixed such as 4 Links Etc. This will be getting released soon and I am excited to say this won't be the only thing. Thanks!

     [TRUCK] McGruff

    Name: McGruff

    Body:  2010 Ford Super Duty

    Chassis: PEI

    Links To Help For Paint:  https://www.monsterjam.com/trucks/mcgruff          7787573_G.jpg

    Other details: The original body was a 3-D dog body of the McGruff the Crime Dog character and it debuted in 1996. Owner Rod Wood teamed up with the National Crime Prevention Council to develop the McGruff the Crime Dog Monster Jam® truck because he wanted to present a positive role model to Monster Jam fans and to represent the sport with a positive image. Some of Wood’s fondest moments come from his trips to Washington, D.C. to display the truck during the National Crime Prevention Council Convention. The McGruff Monster Jam truck also participates in various local law enforcement displays. Meeting the children and their parents during these displays is always a highlight for Wood and my team, since they value the importance of encouragement, positive role models, pursuing dreams, and a can-do attitude. On owning his own Monster Jam truck, Wood explains, “I have to say, I love the perks of owning my own truck. Along with meeting so many loyal Monster Jam fans around the country, I’ve met many city mayors and the inspirational former US Representative Gabrielle Giffords. Another fond memory for me is when I watched San Francisco 49ers quarterback Joe Montana roar up to one of his autograph signings in my McGruff truck. But meeting each and every Monster Jam fan I possibly can at a Monster Jam show is just as fun for me as the extreme excitement I get from freestyle, racing, and riding wheelies in McGruff.”
