Voth Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I just meant would they count it as a save, since the truck was technically over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double.D ッ Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I would count it as an odd roll save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackMProductions Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Dan has to come here and be the party pooper. On a different note, here's an open ended question. How much less spectacular is the move to you if it doesn't reach regular save standards? I've wondered that with other people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voth Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 To be honest, if it looks interesting I don't really care. Sure some "saves" are better than others but they're only called saves because some guy saw a truck do something cool and keep going and called it a save. In the end I just like watching monster trucks do cool things. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDT Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 SUD i consider a recovery over a save. and honestly to its its awesome to watch someone do something like that and its also awesome to watch a driver pull a sweet save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackMProductions Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Yeah, I don't want to get all anal about it and start dissecting the moves for what they're worth, cause it would definitely cloud my enjoyment for what goes on. Recovery or Save, I still like to see it and I don't want to dismiss one for the other. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outlawed Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Your entitled to your opinion and view on a subject, some (such as myself) prefer to use dictionary definitions to categorize. Save: Keep safe or rescue (someone or something) from harm or danger. Examples being So now here comes the fun classification and the one people love avoid: Recover/y: To regain or get back Examples being I just dislike people giving drivers kudos for crashing a truck, sticking their foot into the throttle and it ending back on 4 wheels as some amazing feat. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nascarfan98 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKv7kFBsrcM Not to mention he broke the rear planetary on impact. So it was only the front pulling him out of it. And there's the bias of seeing this save live so..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crushker Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I've been out of the game a bit with monster jam, but that truck laid over for a second with no RII. Wth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that there is a rule for allowing the trucks to have a chance to save it when they rollover, but that's way too long without an RII, especially with the underside of the truck exposed to the crowd. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I see them not shut off any truck (Especially Adam in Jax, and Dennis in vegas) I always cringe and hope nothing happens. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
