In Indianapolis, Indiana it was a wild night of action inside the sold out RCA Dome for the yearly return of Monster Jam. The night started off crazy for Tom Meents and Maximum Destruction as Meents would roll his truck in introductions but would was able to compete in racing. Tony Farrell would make it back to back racing wins for Blue Thunder as he would take out Tom Meents for the racing win. Freestyle started off with a bang as Dave Rappach turned Rap Attack over backwards when attempting a sky wheelie. Jim Bendzick set the bar high for freestyle scoring a 27 in Rolling Thunder and would hold the top spot till the final freestyle contestant. Tom Meents rocked the house with huge high speed jumps and a flip save before flipping the truck while attempting to jump the FMX ramp sideways. Thanks to Josh Rhodes for photos from the event.

Meanwhile in Orlando, Florida the fans packed into the Citrus Bowl for a night of monster truckin' fun. For the second straight year stearing issues would sideline Neil Elliott in Maximum Destruction for racing and Scott Hartsock's Gunslinger would take the top qualifying spot only to lose the motor in the second round while racing Instigator. The finals would come down to Taz and Cowboy with Lee O'donnell taking the win in Taz. Freestyle would see great runs from Brutus, Air Force, Avenger and Grave Digger but it would be Neil Elliott taking the win in Orlando. Thanks to Tim Groves for photos from the event.
