Monster trucks are not dumb what so ever.... Although you are allowed to have your own opinion how can you find something that is as complicated as a monster truck to be dumb????? You have to go figure.... You have a truck that is capable of 2000 horsepower and able to do wheelstands.... Thats dumb?????
Something that costs in the upwards of 150,000.00 dollars dumb??? Not to mention all of the young children as well as the adults of the family having nothing but a great time while watching them... But oh i forgot.. thats dumb....

Sorry to have offended you. I still am not particularly impressed with Monster Trucks. They do have the capabilites to do some sorta neat stuff but I think that the whole monster truck thing is a racket. I've seen Bigfoot roll-over or tip-over a few times and don't you think that they would get some good drivers that don't mess up these mighty expensive trucks???? or wait could it be that the whole thing just an expensive show???? If it were a serious competition I would enjoy it alot more. I do have fun watching their shows, though.
I've just gotten used to watching men put so much into their off-road race trucks, tuff trucks, mud bog trucks, etc. Some to just go have fun and some to make some money, but in any case the people that I have fun watching race and compete are the ones that put something into it instead of some corporation just building a big truck and hiring a driver to go do a show to rake in the big bucks

I have a question to ask the webmaster. You stated that the whole monster truck deal is nothing but something that is staged. I am a huge monster truck fanatic and take great interest into the whole situation. By any chance did you happen to watch the world finals this year. A independant driver from the great state of Michigan won it with his truck AVENGER!!! If the monster truck circuit was staged don't you think that Gravedigger or Team Meents would have won it. I mean it is only the biggest event of the year. Its like the SuperBowl for Monster Trucks. Just an idea......

Hmmm, sounds like you feel very stongly about this subject. I had no wish to offend. I do enjoy watching the monster trucks, it is very amazing to watch all that power, I holler and cheer at the competitions, my point was just that I enjoy the sports MORE that people are putting more into. Personally I love the off-road racing. My husband let me drive his truck around the last time we were out before he broke it. I believe you have alot more respect for something when you've got some sweat, blood and frustration, and that also makes the victories so much sweeter. I was just saying I would rather support those guys.
