Yes the others I have seen have only been modified stock frame mud trucks. This truck was a former grave digger truck and is very capable of competeing. The website for these appearances is runnadm.com

Are you planning on running it like a normal monster truck (car crushes, jumping, etc) or as more of a display piece?!
Should be interesting to see how this truck works. I was planning on heading up to the TS race last weekend but had some other stuff come up. Would have been neat to check it out. Hopefully I'll see it somewhere. I'd really like to see how it runs. Are you planning on running it like a normal monster truck (car crushes, jumping, etc) or as more of a display piece? I run a truck myself and I'd like to see how the motor in this truck compares to the blown alcohol motors we run. No one has ever really run anything other than a blown alcohol motor in a more modern truck and it should be interesting to see what this truck does.
What did you use for a transmission in the truck? Did you keep the same transfer case and running gear that was already in the truck or change that out? Just curious. Good job on the truck and idea though and I look forward to seeing it in the future!
Did you read post #18?

Sorry, was just curious. I run a monster truck myself and have had quite a bit of experience in this industry and was just curious as to what the plans were for the truck. I have been driving a truck for a few years and have been in the sport for my entire life. Infact, you can see me tomorrow (5-8-2008) night on Speed Channel at 8:00PM ET if you would like. I think its a good idea myself and am anxious to see how it works. I drive a 1999 Dodge 2500 myself and am interested to see how one of these motors will do in a monster. I am curious to see how the truck runs with the diesel motor compared to the blown alcohol motors like we run.
Sounds like you've got a good combination there. As I said I have had quite a bit of experience in this industry over the years and was just curious as to what you kept of what was already in the truck and what you changed. Good luck with the truck!
Lenny---I dont know why I didnt put 2 and 2 together. You had some kick azz air in prowler at ford field---to bad you snapped a wheel off. Stay in touch by pm and I will keep you posted. Its nice to have somebody around thats in the biz. I dont know how many people on here are in to monsters but Lenny here drives a well know and respected monster called prowler out of the allen pezo camp. Glad to have you on TDR Lenny.
Beautiful job! I must say that is a great looking and sounding monster truck.
