Preston Pérez Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 (edited) I have had this idea for quite a while now but haven't really found time to start getting things ready for it. Starting around late October or early November when I get off tour, I wanted to host a replica of this year's Fox Sports 1 Championship Series. By that I mean using the exact same tracks and trucks that were used in the real life series. I was thinking of re-opening IMTRS (and that still may very well happen) but I would love to make this idea come to life and make it totally professional and legit. With that being said I only want the best of the best to participate in this series. There will only be 16 spots available for the entire series and I want each and every competitor to have an equal shot at the title. I am planning to host sort of a "try out" for the series open to all members from the entire sim-monsters community. The best 16 of the bunch will be put into the series and be assigned a truck based on their ranking. I would also like to incorporate a small cash reward for the series champion of which the amount is still undecided but will be figured out as the time draws closer. I do however have a few issues that prevent me from the preparation of this series. I am on the road 24/7 up until October and literally have no time to learn or even build the remaining trucks and tracks that were apart of the original series. If you guys like the idea as much as I do and would love to see this become a reality, I would more than appreciate your help getting things done. I am also fully capable of running events by myself but I am looking for some professional help from members with experience announcing, streaming, and officiating events. Down below is a list of what I still need so if you would like to contribute please drop a message below, or to me personally on the site!

Preston Pérez Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 i can try to redo hooked and work on thunder 4x4 aswell Not directed only towards you at all, but also keep in mind that if you want to build a truck or track I don't want it to be half assed. I know nobody has to help me with this and I appreciate anyone that does help me, but please do your best to make the remaining content look good as I want to make this professional.

bkelly Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 We already have a Digger 27 and 2014 versions of Stone Crusher and Madusa, on the site, if it helps. Rolling Thunder is also in the SMV4 (it was updated with a few trucks) if anyone was curious. I believe Edy Beltran made Tampa 2015 but didn't release it if I heard correctly.

I am waiting on Mark Colineri to release his Grave Digger #27. I also realize that we "could" use older versions of some of these trucks, but I would much rather have every single truck up to date. Not to be biased but I am looking for high quality content such as what I see from Andrew Sheets, Johan Seminario, Danny Mackey, Daniel Donnelly, Aaron Lurie, Marcus Santana, Fernando Martinez, John Dough, Edy Beltran, and Julio Vellon just to name off a few of the many talented content creators.

steiale Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I've kinda got a Thunder 4x4 mainly made by Connor Richardson that I've kinda tinkered with. I can give it to anyone if interested however my computer is out of service at the moment. I love the idea and I think it could go pretty far with added components (i.e. videos with commentary) plus I'd be more than willing to provide any assistance as I am able.

Connor Richardson Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Yeah Alex has Thunder 4x4 and I'm definitely open to making more, I just need to learn how to put more detail into the trucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tylinater Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I know this is a bit early to ask this but when specifically is this "try-out" going to happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preston Pérez Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 I know this is a bit early to ask this but when specifically is this "try-out" going to happen? It would probably take place in October. I don't want to plan too far ahead until the remaining content is finished IF it gets finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preston Pérez Posted August 11, 2015 Author Share Posted August 11, 2015 Thanks to everyone that were willing to jump in and help! There is still much to be done, but there is a spectacular team working on the remaining content and I can't wait to see the finished products!

Preston Pérez Posted August 11, 2015 Author Share Posted August 11, 2015 If anyone could find me the Monster Jam intro song that they use on Fox Sports that would be greatly appreciated. I'm having trouble finding it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
