this is not my area of expertise,but as I understand Robby is involved with Ben Chandlers not Monster Jam. http://www.bigfoot4x4.com/home.htmln
Feld Motorsports is Monster Jam.The only thing Monster Jam that Robby has done is go to a show.(from an interview with the speed freaks -front page)
we cover'd this not long ago, when I find the thread I'll link to it.

Feld Motorsports is the parent company of Monster Jam, who holds shows worldwide and is currently the largest monster truck promote by far. Bigfoot (owned by Bob Chandler) does not currently compete in any Monster Jam events, but runs with multiple smaller promoters.

No idea what Robby's plans are for the truck, but these do make quite a statement to passers-by whether they're just sitting there or actually competing.

My understanding is Monster Jam owns the marketing rights to those who compete in its series. That's why Feld is not involved. If I am mistaken, please correct me.

@Bri, thats what I remember.I believe Brett wrote more on this in the thread I posted above.

General info- Brett's the go to guy for Monster Truck stuff.IMO

Agreed. A few of us here know a lot about monsters and Brett is certainly one of them. While Monster Jam does own the rights to the majority of the trucks that run their rents, including Digger and Maximum Destruction, they do leave room in the lineups for independent teams to run also. However those teams aren't allowed to sell merchandise and the only thing sold by MJ revolves around Grave Digger, Max D, El Toro, and the Monster Mutt trucks. Their really isn't incentive to run in Monster Jam. Bigfoot is doing just fine where they are. In fact, they just won another championship maligning it 32 legitimate point series championships.

Okay, It's hard to figure out what you're trying to say because of a complete total lack of punctuation. But if you're trying to say Monster Jam is rigged, join the club. Everyone knows that quad wars is rigged, but its been refuted numerous times about Monster Jam being fixed. It would be totally impossible to fix racing or freestyle. The only thing that Feld or Monster Jam is playing favorites to the big name trucks, its no different than WWE shoving John Cena down your throat. Having Robby in Monster Jam isn't what needs to be done, especially now that Monster has their own truck running every weekend. I think Speed being with Bigfoot is the best option available and obviously Robby and Speed do too.

@Todd: You've not offended anyone, just showed your ignorance. Quad wars is an EXHIBITION, and it isn't Feld who decides who wins, it's the Quad Wars team captain themselves. If you're implying that because of that, Monster Jam racing/freestyle is also rigged, you're sadly mistaken.

Robby would be better off just useing it as a show truck just like the TT and H3. The videos Iv seen of big foot there is not 1,000 or 2,000 in the stands. Monster jam does put a good show on and thats what its all about, But it does sound like nascar. lol.Robby will do what is good for Robby and Speed.
