Anyone else besides me want to see the monster jam drivers try a course like this

[@andylasceski]

I bet you Ryan Anderson could do this truck in less than a minute

[@NotFuzion]

this aged like wine

[@Brytons_Thoughts]

Dude, this is an awesome alternative to Monster Jam! That track is so sick and original!

[@tylerkieran1521]

a tip: you can watch series on flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching all kinds of movies during the lockdown.

[@canaanadriel9646]

@Tyler Kieran Definitely, have been watching on Flixzone} for months myself :)

[@stevendudley5687]

Hooked looks better as a pickup than an Escalade. And I like the early 90s throwback body on Bigfoot 😀👍🏻

[@rollingdigger19]

When I was child I wanted so bad to see a technical monster truck races as this one evolving those beautiful turns that gather skills with the power instead of going straight away then u turn into a boring jump. My love to you from Saudi Arabia

[@adamtereska8734]

Best coverage for monster trucks is right here.

[@Dogman36]

more monster truck shows should have this racing layout!

[@shadowCorpse0]

Agreed

[@caseyphillips2565]

sorry to tell you most tracks are not this big

[@iz9332]

Better than Monster Jam! Needs more trucks like Overbored Team Trucks And Team Scream!!

[@iamxducky9465]

we used to have team scream at the bash but they left us

[@corymarvin]

The Circle K Back To School Bash always seems to get better and better each year it's like the Monster Jam World Finals at The Dirt Track at Charoltte

[@johnanderson6401]

the back to school bash is the world finals. but in the south. I used to go every year o it. I miss going

[@dwp139]

THIS is a true monster truck course.

[@waynenorbreyjr9371]

Best tracks at this event by far! Always look forward to the coverage of these events.

[@metalhead1136]

Awesome video thanks for covering this show again. We go to this one every year an i always look forward to the video of it.

[@vandersgarage4682]

Bigfoot driver was scared of that bus stop jump during racing for some reason. It cost him the win.

[@TheIcpfan23]

You would too. that can ethier roll you backwards or hit it wrong you end up off the side

[@namek1925]

Anyone else notice how Bigfoots suspension settles to the ground so fast no bouncing around.

[@jsetser001]

Is Bigfoot behind now? When I was a kid Bigfoot set the bar in Monster truck racing. Bigfoot was the first tube frame chassis

[@kevinkirk4285]

I noticed early on that leaf springs are way too bouncy... When they started to land and squat and stick, I took notice, as well

[@Pumpskalle]

awesome racing, World Finals should do the same layout

[@corymarvin]

I have seen this type of track layout used before in the past it looks challenging but the drivers love a challenge

[@redkritter1225]

Manox Adventures I think it’s a little too long for the engines. I don’t know the track The is also too big to fit in the stadium, it’s not that big.

[@Pumpskalle]

@@redkritter1225 probably, but it would be awesome none The less, ;)

[@Rangerman69420]

@@redkritter1225 They could definitely fit this in a stadium.

[@redkritter1225]

Typical Pineapple even if. The engines would get damaged because they weren’t made to run for 2 minutes straight full go for an entire night. It does put stress an the engine and heats up everything too.

[@matthewwilliams9200]

that bigfoot driver got to practice using rear wheels. that freestyle was great after the clock

[@DP0706]

I’m not too surprised about Sims’ racing performance, however I was surprised about his freestyle performance. He drove that truck like Meents does with his truck; nearly burning the truck up and just about destroying his equipment. He learned a lot in his time in the pro circuit.

[@DuncanTave]

That's the Steve Sims that you used to see in Monster Jam

[@DP0706]

Duncan Tave Yes I’m aware. He still races in Monster Jam, just not as much any more.

[@DuncanTave]

@@DP0706 No I mean How Sims Freestyled He used to Freestyle all aggressive That's what I meant

[@theracingguyhopeyouenjoy2708]

You guys do know that Bryan Wright a north Carolina native is in hooked and that Steve Sims Jr is from Virginia Beach?

[@Jonathan_Camps]

Annabanana 0706 he usually does that every year here. It’s like a delicacy that he does.

[@andrewroberts8882]

I'm diggin the hell out of that bigfoot 8 retro scheme

[@andylasceski]

Nice to see cars and not all BKT tires

[@oscaraarongomezsolorio7976]

EPIC!!!!

[@DaytonaPrototypes]

Much better than Monster Jam.

[@diggerfan9319]

I like this and Monster Jam.

[@crusadergamer4995]

SlideJob!SlideJob! I prefer both myself

[@AshtonG2022]

Bad company is my favorite monster truck on tmbtv by far

[@shadowCorpse0]

Same

[@Jonathan_Camps]

Ashton G and with the zombies it sounds better then most of the trucks.

[@shadowCorpse0]

This is the other side of Steven Sims we don't see in monster jam

[@CaptainCJ97]

Nice ger pic

[@rtkyro_g59]

I went to this one in person and saw this the same one I loved it.

[@razorscooter6007]

I live in Greensboro NC

[@TheIcpfan23]

i live in Smithfield NC

[@MK-gi1pe]

It would be cool to see the diggers come compete at these events.

[@kevinkirk4285]

Wow! The larger venues are great with more space to run! Especially the race course. Dig it! I heard one of the commentators mention Bristol...as in Bristol Motor Speedway? Brilliant! I wanna see the video. Can't get anywhere near Bristol for the next few years... but, why not put on a monster truck show at the largest outdoor sports stadium in the world?

[@Jonathan_Camps]

Kevin Kirk They do a show there. It’s similar to this show, but in the infield of Bristol. I think they have video of the event in this channel, usually a few weeks before this one.

[@johnhalcrow5047]

Finally A drivers track

[@jordanwolfson8378]

Cool show, but it may be a bit too big. Everybody broke. If i were in the stands i'd feel slightly cheated.

[@Cbam871]

Why can't tracks like Wildwood NJ have this layout?! an this is awesome! Why is Monster jam not like this

[@Rangerman69420]

Wildwood isn't big enough for this track I go every year trust me the camera makes it look big but it really isn't.

[@Jonathan_Camps]

Chris Giangiulio Monster Jam doesn’t want to put thought and effort into their tracks. They save any creativity for the world finals.

[@Twinfire]

A track like this makes me think that seeing a circuit race with monster trucks would be an awesome idea. Extreme open wheel racing.

[@bwrtrain1134]

The retro bigfoot is bigfoot 8

[@jsetser001]

Loved that truck as a kid. Bigfoot 8 and 10 won many races on TNN

[@michaelcorbeil9719]

They said it is #19 in the retro Racing colors

[@Paganiproductions84]

Monster jam are you watching this

[@Cybertronn]

That was Kurt Phillips in crushstation for freestyle

[@shawnrozell4270]

I love Bigfoot my childhood truck it’s to bad he doesn’t come to Virginia so I can see him I’m alwas force to goto monster jam which I don’t mind just wish Bigfoot would come back to Virginia,.

[@shadowCorpse0]

Hooked dusted everyone in racing 😂

[@nickcrim6735]

Chevy Power 💪💪💪

[@shadowCorpse0]

@@nickcrim6735 yep

[@waynenorbreyjr9371]

Yes he did, Bigfoot could have made it a close race if the last turn was a lil bit better and not slowing down before hitting that bus stack just before hitting the final jump. Good race though! Darron's first time at this event and he did a great job. Dan and Larry as set the bar pretty high as far as Bigfoots performances at these events.

[@Jonathan_Camps]

Kandy Boy Bryan Right has ran this track the last few times. This is the stuff he’s good at.

[@crusadergamer4995]

cool

[@redkritter1225]

I feel like this is too long for the truck’s engines. Don’t they start to get damaged after racing for so long at once or am I just crazy.

[@TheRavingTrancer]

You are absolutely correct. Monster truck engines are generally not designed to run for this long at capacity, despite burning alcohol. What you will eventually see is some of these trucks will blow rings or outright crack the block. I think the event officials spaced out racing events to let the blocks cool but idk for sure. Probably put a few motocross rounds in between rounds This is why Monster Jam doesn't run races like this, with their big 16 truck fields. Even the St. Louis style tracks saw major overheating on trucks, back in the day if the brackets were large enough.

[@Jonathan_Camps]

The Raving Trancer They Do motocross and Jet cars and stuff like that in between to let the trucks cool and let any damage be fixed. I think this year it’s trailer racing.

[@craigsmith2132]

Better than monster jam... Wish grave digger was here,, just one though.. monster jam ruined everything tbh

[@railyardfilms6491]

It's a block fest in NC

[@conflicthorizon]

I'm not a fan of this type of track. it splits up the racers way too much. I prefer the more side by side style.

[@bodeyattack]

I like monster trucks but they seem to have gotten boring to me lately... like i wanna see em go fast and high... but they all do the same thing.. lol

[@elbigsurge]

Nickattack / I’m certain they won’t be able to sleep at night, knowing you’re so bored.
