Roach Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Today the monster truck nation has lost a top contender in the European class. Karl Swallow, driver of the Slingshot monster truck has passed today due to a heart attack. We are very saddened to hear about this, Karl has driven the Slingshot monster truck to plenty of European Monster Jam events. Tearing it up in events in Arnhem, Derby, Cardiff, and many non-Monster Jam events. We here send our complete condolences to the Swallow family. RIP Karl. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergeant Politeness Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Karl had an amazing and well built truck, he was an excellent performer and was a pioneer in popularizing monster trucks in England. The UK just lost one of its finest today. RIP Karl, to one of the best in the sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patriotic Canadian Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Well he was running a fairground yesterday, which ash went to. frankly, this is probably me being my calloused misanthropic self, but if i wanted to go out, i'd want to go out the day after i drove my own monster truck at a packed fairground, every single eye there to see you tearing it up. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
