Ram27 Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 AAP was the title sponsor of Monster Jam? I thought it was McDonalds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookin4myscooter Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 If that was a shot at the constant red and yellow theme, then I'm sure you will be hounding YouTube for a video on the Houston, TX show on Jan 4th (I think is when it is), as will I, in hopes of new track design and colors. What I'm wondering is without a title sponsor, will they have a new one? Did they even have one before AAP? Would also love to see some new truck bodies, instead of all these mid 2000's trucks, almost ten years later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they won't have a new one, or at least a less imposing one. I don't think they had one before; they never modified the actual logo for a sponsor before.

MJFAN Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 With the POD now going to Gillete stadium, seeing how it is after East Rutherford, and that Tom hasn't landed the double yet... Do you think that he might try the double there? It looks like it could be the last stop on the POD, so it would make sense... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookin4myscooter Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Tom did technically "land the double back flip" but the truck twisted around so it wasn't true, but was as close as it gets, can't change physics. That was at WF 14. Even so, though the flips were cool when Cam McQueen did it in Jacksonville, I think it has been a bit over played. I came from 1990, but I'm no genwunner. I wonder if POD will still be red and yellow, to my knowledge, that's where it all started. POD 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outlawed Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Meents has not landed a double backflip period. Backflip is a vertical axis backwards rotation, hell he has a terrible record with single flips aswell. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double.D ッ Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 I don't think he'll ever land a true double backflip unless he changes the design of that stunt truck. Too many things about that truck are slimming down his chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsterjamcod0329 Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 The truck was changed drastically for the last attempt. It was a much shorter truck wheelbase wise and the engine was in the rear instead of the front. He almost had landed it with no twist. All he really needs to do is get some more airtime and i think hes got it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lookin4myscooter Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 I was saying "technically" as in from Monster Jams point of view, which is why I followed with "it wasn't true". I don't consider it a real double backflip. Either way I think it's all just a bunch of non-sense. I doubt he will try it again since they called it as a true double at WF 14. On the flip side, and due to the repetitive nature of Monster Jam, and Tom, he might still try try just to further his satisfaction and to prove himself to be "#1".

EmmaCake Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 He even said himself that it was not a double, so why would he stop trying? Not that he is ever gonna make it tho... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
