Is this Bob Jenkins that announced for NASCAR in the late 80s?

I live ❤ole school 🚸 days power 🤛👊🤜💪👍🏁🚜

Seven V8s. Insane. Love the brand rivalry on the track and in the stands, adds a lot of "spice".

Bad Dawg always among the best. Great pulling here.

USA1 and Bigfoot are my favorite trucks

Gotta love all these monster trucks, but Big Tow was incredibly cool.

Awesome pulling vehicles, especially the trucks. Great stuff.

That has to be one of if not the best pull Gary Collins ever had in the Bud Boss. Awesome!

I wish I could buy a ticket to an event like this today. I don't mean they have be 80's monster trucks etc. (although they are awesome). I mean I would love to attend a stadium event that had monster trucks, truck & tractor pulling, exhibition runs, & maybe even a mud bog.

The tanks were always a great show, nice to see Bob Chandler at the wheel (or the stick) in one of them. Knight Stalker, super nice truck.

I really liked Magnum Jr. The Super Modified trucks were brutal also.

TNT nfms 4wd

Love the snow flying off Kodiak on that first hit!

Love this epic early footage I first saw Monster Trucks at The Silverdome in 1985 but the safety in the early days was appalling

Always cool stuff to watch. An all-Bigfoot final! Am/Pm Rocket vs Bigfoot was great too. Between pulling, monster trucks and tanks, you can't be distracted. 23:08 A Ford sponsored Vette, ha!

Enjoyed this second part too. Complicated left lane. Bigfoot vs Hercules II was epic.

Very nice stuff. Real, solid steel trucks. First time I see Krimson Krusher, Ohio Earth Shaker and Madman..

That “Coors” King Krunch is an obs rather than the usual squarebody, anyone know what the deal is? The wheelbase looks longer and It’s also not an extended cab obs like the second Krunch is.

Brings back good memories. Being at Uncle John's shop while he was working on the Excalibur.

The variety within this event is as good as it gets. It made an arena show feel like a huge deal. This is a tractor/truck pull show with additional bonuses of monster trucks/tanks & much more. Imagine going to a pull these days & getting all this extra! Maybe instead of so many people complaining about Monster Jam, we could bring pulls back up to this level again (with variety). Regardless, thanks for the sharing!

I was at this show. My first time seeing Bigfoot. Pretty sure Stomper Bully was there and for some reason seems Don Maples had Samson there too.

The good thing about Army Armstrong and Scott Douglas is that they are remembered not only for their iconic voice over but their mostly calm and collective mannerisms. Dave Grimm on the other hand was just ANNOYING as hell and always shouting at the top of his voice and I'm glad they kept him out of future monster truck racing events because he just didn't know when to shut up.

Here's my personal theory- If Jim Kramer drove Bigfoot for much of the 1988 season all the way up to Louisville Freedom Hall for the crowning of the 1988 championship, I think he would have been ahead of Rod Litzau in USA-1 and would have been the first monster truck national champion. I'm not sure why Rich Hooser was Bob Chandler's choice for racing the truck for much of this season since he was obviously not as good as Kramer. Just think of how many victories Jim got in the 1987 season and maybe history would have been different.

I don't like Dave Grimm I much preferred Scott Douglas.

@ 3:43, VFP gave us a bit of a spoiler.

Were there any monsters at this show?

I've always wondered, since I saw this event, why Mad Dog had that flat black hood midway through the season through the end at the Hoosier Dome. Was it a primer coat from some earlier damage it sustained and Jon just didn't have time to repaint it because he was on the road so much between TNT and Hart Productions? Anyone know? Now, later he occasionally ran it with no hood, which I would've preferred between the two.

Wow. I wasn't aware of the Dabneys involvement with the Jersey Outlaw.

Deaf and satisfied after this fifth part.

Never enough V8's.

Nice to see these trucks. The Nascar commercial was insane, that Galaxie flew!

i would psy money 2 see it again. Pulling mud and Monster trucks. Was always a great night

First I see Taurus at Bowling Green 1989 and now (Little) Bear Foot here at a TNT event?

Great action, thanks for sharing this second part.

Unique looking, very original, colourful machines. Plenty of power. Boot Hill Delivery and Excalibur King maybe are the most eye-catching. 28:59 insane...

The monster trucks battle was great! But the tanks were equally or even more effective flattening cars. OLE YELLER, yeah!

Fine stuff, thanks for sharing it.

4x4wd truck pull

Reckless Rex almost "extinct"... Loved the monster trucks, wild rides by Jim Kramer in the awesome Bigfoot. AM/PM Boss was a serious contender!

Hard To Handle was flying high!! MUDSTANG... Wow.

Loved MIS CONCEPTION... PROSECUTOR looked great also!

Nothing like seeing the old Detroit iron pulling! Thanks!
