I had a lot of people that I thought were friends back in the day. When I lost my parents that drove me in to Major depressive disorder with psychotic features (hallucinations). Now 30 years later, I have been diagnosed as schizophrenic. Those friends are nowhere to be found.

Hi

[@KineticTaco]

only 30 minutes in, and from the USA. Kind if amazing you can build a Monster Jam worthy truck with no prior knowledge, experience, or a multimillion dollar shop. Great work Kev and crew.

[@tankjones513]

For the first 5 or 6 minutes of the video, I kept thinking to myself, "It's really no different than building an RC car, except scaled wayyy up." Then Kev says the same thing in the video. Great minds think alike, lol. You, sir, are more motivational than you think. I will probably never build my own monster truck, but if I ever do, it will be exactly because of you. I'd like to at least own one someday, but even if I don't, I can see myself operating from that same "child-like" motivation for ANY desire I have. Never give up that imagination and tenacity! It's very inspiring!

[@maxlammtyaf8514]

Can we just appreciate the fact that the guy just randomly choose to build a monster truck and then did it

[@riothero313]

No doubt, I randomly forget to clip my toenails.

[@huginobugino9142]

Thanks for the info

[@rctrucks2094]

Yeah and he is even going to monster truck shows now. I can't believe he just thought one day "These trucks are cool so lets order the parts!" And then succeeds.

[@scottcupp8129]

Man I totally appreciate that. Most people just dream about something but they only dream. Kevin is a dreamer and a doer. He chased his dream and then did something to capture it and then just did it. So yes all the way. Great comment my friend :)

[@maxlammtyaf8514]

[@snyperal]

The whole thing is beautiful... but those axles and engine.. wow 👌 👏

[@mutemiz]

The effort of building such a truck must be immense, many many hours research and labor, then the effort to record edit and share- simply amazing. legit stuff here boys and girls.

[@MrLipp24]

Good timing off work due to health and feeling bored, a dose of kev for an hour or so will cheer me up!

Went to see you yesterday at Santa Pod, felt so bad when Game Over couldn't compete as she was smoking. Incredible machine and kids now sat here watching you build her.

You can tell it is a complicated build when you get super excited about bolts coming.

i asked the question awhile back if the engine is a proper 540 big block merlin and you do not disappoint, those Brodex heads are legit and you did it the right way, this machine could compete in monster jam once you learn to drive it!

[@davidsadventures4868]

Yes Kevin PLEASE DO Monster JAM!!! Monster Jam will definitely be a little more difficult than regular independent monster truck shows but I think you will love driving in Monster Jam. You will get to meet and travel with so many great drivers you may even get to tour with Mikey since he's in Monster Jam as well. I would love to see you in Monster Jam

[@harveylong5878]

actually, MJ is cookie cutter tracks. they repeat the same style track over and over. indie promoters tend to vary track style, freestyle setup. indie shows IMO test driver's skill to adapt vs just memorize certain style of track

[@davidsadventures4868]

@@harveylong5878 I've actually never thought of it that way but you do have a point and I agree. But how I feel about the Monster Jam tracks is maybe they are using the same design track everywhere they go but the environment they are performing in is always different as well as the material and dirt the track is built with like the tracks in the independent shows that the drivers have to get used to. The drivers also have to get used to the different texture and type of dirt for example the dirt at one show rather than the other might have different driving conditions that come to it.

[@davidsadventures4868]

@@harveylong5878 but in general I do get what you're saying. The track might not always be custom but the environmental factors also come into play.

Such a great time 🤓! You deserve it mate! I get to build my UDR and you get your Monster Truck 🤓! So happy for you ❤️! I'm getting so excited just watching you!!!!!!!! I drove alot of forklifts in my day, you're a natural! You can call that hood a bonnet all day long mate!🤓 We don't mind! I opened up my page so you and your mate's can drop by and say hello if I can figure out how to do it 😎. I'm hitting 70 years young in August. I hope to get my first UDR parts by then!

Hey Kev, Don't never feel bad. Let haters get you down, or expect perfection on a fresh build. Because as any GREASE MONKEY (MECHANIC) knows firsthand: "THERE'S ALWAYS A FEW BUGS TO WORK OUT ON ANY PROJECT." I'm a 43-year exp, MECHANIC myself, And RESTORING ANTIQUE P/U's, 4x4's, Even turning old bikes thrown away into BEAUTY'S: IS HOW I RELAX! I watched your video from start to finish and loved every second of it. And the way all of y'alls faces lit up when y'all first: FIRED IT UP, FINISHED PUTTING THE BODY ON IT, JUMPED IT, WATCHED IT PERFORM was nothing short of priceless! I hope to see you and your NEW TOY come to America one day to compete. CONGRADULATIONS ON A JOB WELL DONE.

[@EJ-74]

The universal joints must be made out of titanium to take all that horsepower 😳 That's where a all the power is being delivered between the gear box and to the rear and front axles to turn those massive tires. That's an insane amount of pressure they have to stand up to. 😱

Yes you have all the parts but that’s not the point it’s hard to stay dedicated and to know how to check off the list because it gets so overwhelming.
