Best monster truck wheelie I've ever seen

Monster Truck Jam 2009, Arnhem Holland, Maximum Destruction freestyle grand finale... NEVER say die! Don't quit til it won't run!

Just saw this on Speed tv, had to show it to you.

Monster truck cyclones, but if it doesn't happen right, is it a mini tornado?

Above: Best cyclone of the event

Below, a try at a cyclone, but it wasn't as fast as the other drivers, so, well... I'm gonna call it a mini tornado

Monster truck wheelies, 10000 pounds of juggernaut on 2 wheels, either one side or just the back tires

I had no idea these trucks had so much power they could lift the front end from a standing start, on dirt. That is awesome

Tere took a perfect series of photos of monster truck Spike's full freestyle run and explosion

Coverage doesn't get better than this! See the whole gallery at http://justacargal-s.blogspot.com/2011/01/monster-jam-san-diego-spike.html

Monster Truck Jam San Diego 2010, freestyle

The freestyle event is to get points by putting on the best show, the most tricks in 90 seconds

But going all out usually results in a flipped rig. This seems to be the point that most of the trucks get to, do a lot of cool stunts, then wreck in a spectacular way to get the most points (on a 1 to 10 scale)

The Batman truck put on a great show, but like Grave Digger, found that the area it landed in was a wreck magnet.

A coupel of photos to show how damaged the body became, but like the others, they all were able to get back to the sidelines under their own power

The Lucas Oil Crusader put on a hell of a great show, made more points than the previous trucks... but that was the trend. All along the trucks would get more points and put on a better show than the previous trucks, and it seems to me that the best drivers were going last, and the least experienced first. That is how the points resulted.

The above spin, it's called a cyclone... and when done perfect gets points, but one little mistake, and the driver is on his lid.

Lots more coverage to come, lots of videos to intersperse with these photos to show you the cool tricks they pulled off, the wheelies, the powerslides, and the cyclones

Only one monster truck caught on fire last night, it was Spike, and it reflashed twice.. nobody hurt

Check out Tere's total coverage of Spike's run, and explosion! http://justacargal-s.blogspot.com/2011/01/monster-jam-san-diego-spike.html

In the above photo, if you click on it it'll go full screen size, you can see the bright orange fire above and below the center of the truck grill

Makes a hell of a big cloud of smoke, but I was too far away to smell it. I believe they said something about the trans line and the exhaust headers.

Big air comparison
