Anderson Sweeps Jacksonville; El Matador and Digger Win in Oklahoma City

Randy Brown in Grave DiggerDennis Anderson and Grave Digger XIX took the racing and freestyle victories tonight in Jacksonville, Florida the first night that all four World Champions were in the same arena. Anderson defeated Jim Jack in Reptoid on the rainy track after Jack took out Tom Meents (Maximum Destruction) in the semifinals. Anderson, Meents, Madusa, and Jim Koehler’s Avenger all had highlight-worthy runs, but Anderson came out on top with a score of 29.

In Oklahoma City, El Matador took the victory over Total Chaos in the finals, and Randy Brown’s Grave Digger won freestyle with a 29 after rolling on a van hit with a broken rear tie rod (photo courtesy Landon Harrison). Photos, updates and more from the first quarter of 2005 are on the way!

St. Louis Monster Jam Recap; Photos Soon

Saturday’s St. Louis Monster Jam was exciting as usual for events at the Edward Jones Dome, with Tom Meents (Maximum Destruction) sweeping racing and freestyle. Meents beat Dennis Anderson (Grave Digger) in the finals after Anderson went up on two wheels in the final turn, making the save but losing the race. Anderson had rolled in introductions but managed to take the fastest qualifying time before his loss to Maximum Destruction in the final. Meents went half of his freestyle run on three wheels, ending with the only rollover of the freestyle competition. More highlights, coverage, and photos are on the way soon.
