Monster Trucks in the 1980s - Part 11

[TheExlnt1]

@3:12 is that alien?

[DiggerFanJSB]

@TheExlnt1 If you're referring to the truck with the larger tires & Nissan body, that appears briefly at 3:12, that is Kevin Dabney's "Mega Force."

Does anyone know the name of the truck racing Krimson Krusher at 3.1?

Thanks

[DiggerFanJSB]

@volksrod68 The truck racing Krimson Krusher at 3:13 is Marvin Smith's "Crimson Giant."

what truck at 2:25?

[DiggerFanJSB]

The truck at 2:25 is the "Intimidator" monster truck, owned by Mark Rychaert.

[LiveToBike9]

seems like the trucks back then had much more rigid suspension then they do today

[icpfan19]

why you say that

[sfy2004]

great memories, and a great series of videos. thanks for putting these up, its like deja vu all over again. it was weird seeing how many i can still name just by seeing them

[drewchaos]

what event is 1:56 from??? it looks like a pontiac event.

[DiggerFanJSB]

The clip at 1:56 is from a 1987 USHRA event in the Pontiac Silverdome.

[drewchaos]

do you have it available for trade? i can't find anyone who does.

[ColtCobra2002]

Rare look to a Bigfoot truck @ 1:08 with the light blue stripe, looks like Bigfoot 4, hard to tell tho

[Chick6517]

if this video was entered into an awards show i wonder how well it would do? what do you think., i think it might get nominated for something,

[monsterdawg77]

headbanger music + monster trucks = orgasmic.

[mnm91469]

old school rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MidwestMonsters]

3:12 Mega Force! Have to see more footage from that event!

[chryco63]

Hmm, this is a particularly good compilation. Great work!

[dannynanner]

I never get tired of these -- lots of rare footage in this. I have a few questions:

01 - Are there no Bigfoot logos on the truck at the 0:28 mark?

02 - Which truck/car is at the 0:49 mark? Did the driver get hurt?

[DiggerFanJSB]

The Bigfoot at 0:28 is #7, I'm pretty sure, shortly after the filming of the movie "Road House," when the truck still did not have the logos on the doors (the truck made it's debut in the filming of the movie).

The vehicle at 0:49 is Wild Stang, and was driven by Barry Wentz in that clip, at a show in Cayuga, Ontario (Canada). Although I'm not sure how severe is injuries were (if he was injured at all), but he did survive that accident.

[RB26DETTPR]

#1 That is Bigfoot 7 just after roadhouse

#2 Thats Barry Wentz for sure and he did suffer injuries to the point of Barry being resucitated after he was taken out of the wreck. He did survive but i think he passed away a few years back though not too many years ago of him passing away.

[earlerylander]
