I was just watching a monster truck show on tV and I was wondering what happened to big foot he was my favorite now whenever you watch these shows all they talk about is gravedigger and golburg and so on.
If you go to www.bigfoot4x4.com you'll find the links to the articles as to why they aren't racing with the good old boys club, as I like to call it.
It has NOTHING to do with "if they can't win". They also hate the idea of taking their trucks out and totally destroying them as the pro wrestler type series has it.
Talking with monster truck drivers who have been in the TV series that used to be on, they were as rigged as wrestling. The promoters told the drivers who was going to win and if you didn't let them, by doing a poor show, you didn't get paid like you were supposed to. Also, they wanted to buy Bigfoot, like they did most of the other trucks. Chandler didn't wish to sell. A few of the drivers have bought their trucks back.
I'm glad that Bigfoot is touring with Checkered Flag Productions. I have FINALLY gotten to see several models of it. I am still a hardcore Bigfoot fan and always will be. The power and torque of their engines is amazing. A couple years ago, they had a wheelie contest and one of the older front engine Bigfoots was here. None of the other trucks could get their wheels more than a few feet off the ground for a few seconds. Bigfoot wheelied the length of the grandstand three times! Even the Chevy lovers went nuts and a continuous standing ovation and roar of the crowd lasted the whole performance.
Bigfoot has a link to their appearances, some videos that will blow you away and some other stuff.
