What happened to the Monster Truck?

I not talking about the Monster Logo but Robby's actual monster (car crushing) truck. Is he ever going to bring it out to race? I think this would be a great way to promote Speed Energy.

The fuel consumption is to high on 1450hp motor, Due to the prohibitive cost of running this awesome machinary, the monster truck is a start and park at the shop.

On a serious note, it would be be cool to see a big orange truck. IT will be harder for Nascar to tow it away just in case it is violating some stupid nascrap contract.

It's still around, just idle until RG figures out what he wants to do with it, and has the funds in place to do something. It's not top priority right now

If he'd like it run, but doesn't have time himself to do so, I can likely hook him up with any number of teams willing and able to do so for him. Even if it's just running the SPEED logos on different trucks...

@Brett, are you still doing shows?

@Mike - Not much between Sept-Dec. Once January comes (1st quarter), it gets REALLY busy though. If RG wants exposure Jan-Mar is when the truck, or at least the SPEED logo, needs to be running.

Getting the SPEED logo out there on other trucks would take 1 phone call, and some product sponsorship. Feld (Monster Jam) may have a tie-in with M**ster through their Supercross stuff, but the independent trucks that run with Monster Jam are free to run whatever sponsors they choose.

Was this Monster money, or RGM money?

he's still got it as it's sitting in the shop by the older cup and busch cars robby used to drive but as the other say, it is probably on idle now until something comes up that makes it finanically worth running! I imagine that monster did have something to do with it to begin with though but I really have no clue?

Sell it! Very cool to see him run it but I don't know. I'm 24 years old. Monster trucks were cool when I was 10 or so. I just don't see the market for it.

p.s. I have no idea what I'm talking about. This is just IMO

Have you been to a show Chris?

Yes, when I was a little kid and thought it was cool. GRAVE DIGGER! Not my thing since I'm all grown up now. Maybe if I got to drive one I would think otherwise. Till then though...

Haha 24, I'm 24 and I know I'm not grown up. Ya I wear slacks to work everyday and have constant contact with CFOs, but I'm still a kid.
