slow, don't handle well, fragile - but man was it FUN living through this Monster Truck evolution at its infancy. The sport is only young once! Thank you!
I remember watching the Motorsports of America tour back in November of 1992 in Evansville Indiana. It was my first indoor monster truck show. I enjoyed seeing 6 cool monster trucks: Knight Stalker, Wild Thing, Krimson Krusher, Wild Hair, Moving Violation, and The Hulk. Plus Big Ed Begley, Quad, and Motorcycle racing. Had a blast!
Two reasons as per a former Monster Jam employee: 1) The dirt pods stay more consistent than the cars do. 2) They have problems with cars sending pieces into the crowd, supposedly.
@@adamtereska8734 unfortunately that supposedly is true. A little boy was killed by flying debris that was projected from the track into the audience during a freestyle run at a monster jam up in Tacoma back in 2009. I forgot though if the debris was from the truck or a junk car. It was sad and tragic that the child lost his life.
Nothing beats that old school attitude
Spectacular
Amazing
Wonderful 😝✨

Yes! Yes! Yes!
This is the thanksgiving left overs we all wanted! Awesome stuff as always!
Always love the classic stuff
Man what awesome sport it was back then. What we got today is nothing compared to what it was in 80s to mid 90s.
Love seeing these unaired races.
Drivers where such showmen back then now not so much. I was born 20 years to late
Oh man I remember watching these in Fort Wayne in the Coliseum and I think at Bear Field Speedway if I remember the name right..! And of course TV :-)
Great footage!
Oh snap
Y did monster jam stop using cars? That’s what made monster trucks famous!

@@chadspence7483 I believe it was from the truck itself, because that truck went away and a new truck debuted.
