Here are some photos from last weekend's show in Dublin, VA, which was our first of 2026. A big thank you to Monster Truck Bash for having us at the event! This weekend we are heading to Georgetown, DE for the first Monster Truck Roundup event of 2026. Been several years since we've done a show at Georgetown Speedway so we are excited to be back! I would like to take a minute and give a shout out to our newest sponsor Midgard Self Storage. There's been a lot of changes going on with the business over the last few months and moving things out of the garage. With the help of Midgard we were able to find a location to securely store our things. They have a gate that remains closed at all times and you can only get in with the correct code. They have locations all along the east coast and are happy to help with any storage needs. It's help like this and from all of our other sponsors and fans that keep us crushing cars year after year. We could not do it without you all! 🔥

10 years ago today was one of the closest calls I've ever had behind the wheel, I thought it was a goner! 2016 Wheeling, WV for Monster Jam. Andy Ullom took one of the coolest pics ever of the truck right in the middle of this wheelie. I remember looking up in the stands and seeing Pops going nuts after this! 😂 Jon Zimmer in Grave Digger came through the tunnel and nosed up to me and tached it up as if to tell us good job. An awesome memory that I'll never forget!

Almost 11 years ago to the day at the Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, OK. Had a sponsor Ken with Joe's Hand Cleaner in attendance and had a great time hanging out with him. Uncle Ben said he would stay before heading home to southern IL if I cleared the double. I came up a little short, but still had a blast!

This past weekend in Fayetteville, NC was our first show of 2025! The truck did great and we cannot thank Overdrive Monster Trucks enough for having us. It was a great lineup and an awesome group of people to run with. A huge thank you to our fans and sponsors as we approach year 14 of owning the truck. Without you all and your support, we wouldn't be doing what we love!
