monsterextremo99 Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 the blue thunder dont have flags and the red thunder and night strike are the similar like blue thunder chassis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Gajewski Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 The reason Blue Thunder dont have flags and is'nt sponsered by ford is i think FELD sold it.... im not sure but Red Thunder was made by my friend and he made it off of BT and Night Strike was a truck just based of the body and chassis.

mjkproductions Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 okay, here's the story. (i'll talk about taz too, because i have nothing better to do, lol). ford dropped out of sponsoring monster jam as of 2011, which is why blue thunder and linsey weenk was at minneapolis in november. after that though, feld had to take all the ford logos off of blue thunder (look in your 2011 yearbook, the places where all the ford logos are, even the oval on the front, are photoshopped out). blue thunder won't be back of course next year, due to the fact that there's no sponsorship holding it. same thing happened with taz. their contract for the taz name left this year, which is why it was turned into "tasmanian devil", and no longer looked like the character taz. most likely tasmanian devil won't be back next year either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing I want to add is that Ford pulled the sponsorship from the main series (Like AAP is now) basically you can think of Grinder as a Blue Thunder replacement. However LOCAL Ford dealers still sponsor events but Ford Motor Co. itself does not sponsor Monster Jam anymore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsterjamfan34 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 so what will become of the truck in the next pack will it still be there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom P. Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Think about it, they worked so hard on that pack. It took a long time to make it 100% for everyone to enjoy. I don't think ANYONE is even THINKING about a new pack now. Why would you ask about a new pack anyways? This one is awesome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyman444 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Chances are the Blue thunder truck may be there still for those that like it and would want to run it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RKM Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Chances are the Blue thunder truck may be there still for those that like it and would want to run it. And for the fact we have way more members then we do trucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWildChild199 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Isn't offroad racing star Todd Leduc driving Blue Thunder now? I think it will stick around for quite a while and Tasmanian devil will stick as long as people are driving it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom P. Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I heard both Blue Thunder and Tasmanian Devil won't be running next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SybilSixx66 Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 I read somewhere that Blue thunder will stick around for a while, but it won't get anywhere close to as much exposure (TV time, etc) as it used to. My translation: We're gonna stick it at all the pos 4 truck arena shows as field filler with some talentless nobody behind the wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see you try and not destroy the walls. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
