MONSTER TRUCK MADNESS II
shook the grounds of the Soaring Eagle Casino and Resort on July 2nd,
2011. In the wheelie contest it was Zane Rettew in Stinger sending his
truck into a wild leap over the cars but it was Jon Zimmer in the Amsoil
Shock Therapy claiming the win with a nice slap wheelie. Racing saw some
wild action on the unique course designed by Midwest Monster Truck
Events. In the final round, Amsoil Shock Therapy defeated Chris Bergeron
in Brutus.
Freestyle action was "certified hot" as High Maintenance started things
with a wild leap over the camper! Excaliber had some nice jumps, and
Andy Hoffman drove War Wagon until the body fell off! Chris Bergeron
returned early to the pits after a planetary broke causing Brutus to
lock up it's left rear wheel, but not before Chris cracked off a wicked
set of cyclones!
In freestyle it was a battle between Floridian JR McNeal in Razin Kane
and Jon Zimmer in Amsoil Shock Therapy. In the end it was Zimmer once
again claiming the win and a clean sweep of the weekend's events after
Shock Therapy threw down clinic of wheelies, huge air, and cross
threads.
