Hey mike jr I just wanted to let you know that you are an awesome monster truck driver. I watched your dad in the black stallion when I was a kid I have been watching all your videos and I have much respect for you because you are able to fix your truck whenever it needs repairs. I’m from Hagerstown and it’s good to see someone like you and your dad representing our hometown. Gravedigger and Bigfoot used to be my favorites but overkill and black stallion are my favorites now. By the way congrats on winning the freestyle in 2015 you deserved it
Awesome that you drivers can get along... and Thank You for sharing a sneak peak into the life of of a MT team on the road! Epic driving mate!! Keep up the epic work!
I really appreciate V2 vids I needed a smile an have seen this video.. it still made me forget bout my troubles an took me to a space I felt comfort in… for 20 mins I got out of my own head and woooooows and enjoyed myself through Mikey’s awesome video .. that took a lot to make .. Thank You Sir I Needed U Today n U came thro
Really enjoying your channel...pretty amazing what you guys handle and deal with during your tours...had no idea what went into running a monster truck, it's educational and fascinating. Thanks for taking us on board! All the best from Oz!
Those ramps on the start remind me of 1990 Louisville Speedway. Just skyward hits. It's always fun when you're at a show I do. See ya in Quincy come September.
My new favorite Channel Mike! Big fan and Missed you at Met Life recently even though Matt was there. You drive that truck Bruddah with no holding back. Respect! Also your videos and content are the best behind the scenes, during and what it means to be a monster truck driver and owner. Thank you for making all of us apart of your life and you deserve millions of subscribers Bruddah! Keep up the great work and much success to you and your fam!
I was there. Was good but the show I went to he didn't run period lol. (was originally also going to the afternoon,but made so many stops I missed it (Saturday)
Amazing video as always Mikey! Ever since I started watching your videos a few months ago you have become my all time favorite TH-camr and monster truck driver
From the start of the video to 0:16 is one reason why i wanna become a monster truck driver just hearing them gives me goose bumps im only 17 i still have my ways to go
Been watching Monster trucks on and off since the early 90’s, first time being able to see behind the scenes. Glad to see the Vater family is still driving trucks and staying independent. Have you ever driven one of the old “stage 2” trucks (aka metal frame trucks) and how do they compare to the modern tubular design you drive?
Just catching up with this video months after the fact - popped up in my feed somehow. I think I made a cameo appearance in one of your walk-around clips lol. I was at this event with a vehicle in the showfield.
My hometown I remember one of the first monster truck shows I went to I remember your dad in black stallion riding a slap weally from one end of the fairgrounds the other was so sweet.
Bloomsburg is awesome!! The history there is insane!! Way to keep that truck running and winning despite all the problems with it. Can't wait for the Part 2 video!
At 4:47 that’s the mechanic. I saw him at a&a when we were getting tickets and he said it was for the tire of what he was getting. He said the tire had a leak and we went to come visit him.
Mike you are the best of all! Badass driving skills, and such a nice Person that stays on the ground! So happy that ive found your Channel a feg weeks ago! Wish you all the best and stay Safe Mike!
Awesome vid man!👍 loved the out-side in-side edit. Nice job on the diff. I can’t get over the size of the parts that come out of that monster! 🤣 Sweet front endo stall man holy s#*t dude! Sweet Air! 👊👌😎🍻 nice win!
Bloomsburg through the years have put on some great shows. I loved the 90's and the Penda Series days. It's been many years since I've been there. Good to see that the shows are still going on and are pretty good. Now the dust is the only issue, but with the heat and all it hard to keep the dust down. Great show by everyone! I'll be looking forward to part 2!
Whens the next time youll be near Lima, Ohio for a show? Been wanting to get up close to the truck and see how it ticks (UNOH High Performance student wanting to do Monster Jam or anything offroad)
Thanks for the response to my question on how a private owner makes money. Realy shows you do read your comments and make time to respond. Thanks great vids I watch everyone you post love the content.
@@nicksanto4949 Oh ok now I see. I can remember in 1989 Big Foot came to my home town in Firebaugh CA with Big Foot #8 Andy Brass was the Driver. Nick I'm a Huge Fan of yours Love your videos and Love the truck. Your the next Andy Brass in my book awesome driver. Hope to see you in central California soon . Great job Man
From what I've heard and what Bob Chandler has said that back when it was Pace Motorsports (if I'm not mistaken) they wanted to buy Bigfoot, but Bob wasn't willing to sell. I've also heard that there was a issue with Bigfoot videotaping their trucks and issues with licensing which I totally understand cause back then Bigfoot using videotaping for safety reasons and making their own VHS and DVDs back then. There was a interview with Bob Chandler where he spoke about the situation. Either way Bigfoot has put their issues aside and offered their trucks. It's just Feld aka Monster Jam that seems to be still holding this grudge. They made a comment to Bob back then that they had purchased Grave Digger and they were gonna make their own stars, hence all the trucks under the Feld Entertainment umbrella.

Racing like this makes me miss the days of Dan Runte and Andy Brass back when it was the Penda Series. Awesome video as always!

Happy to see you got the front steering fixed. I know how frustrating it can be. Well done!
