Funny with the rush of Scott Stephens scrambling for a body and Awesome Kong swoops in as a Monster Thing with flat sheet metal. I care less and only mention because it affected the rules. Now the rules manufacturer shaped body rather then just “a body”. Also Awesome Kong out there with the 73 inch tires for a taller & faster final gear ratio giving him a high top speed.
This race is so unique and really brought unexpected strengths and weaknesses to all the trucks.
10/10 take my money.
One of the most unique tracks in early monster truck competition for sure
Thank you for uploading so much content TOM!

He also had a blown alcohol motor
