Another season done new one one to begin.

One things for certain in the world of down under monster trucking we don't have a real long lay off in between seasons,,,the last show for the year was a cracker at the capacity filled Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne and a new one about to begin again in just over a months time when all hell lets loose at the fantastic Sydney Indoor Acer Arena venue on Saturday Sept 6,The Acer Arena would have to be the Best venue in the country with so much room its like being in a outdoor football stadium but with the comforts of a indoor upmarket super stadium, This years program is nothing short of sensational with six trucks planned to do battle in oval track racing along with freestyle for the Indoor Australian Monster truck Championships certainly a date for the diary More great news for the monster trucks has been the new association with Sony Playstation from here on in you’ll see a big presence of Sony games at our shows on the big screen ,at the pit parties, in giveaways and importantly in the new Sony play station 3 Motor storm truck that has transformed from the old Monster Patrol but don't Fret to much about M.P because there's a Brand New one on its way across the pacific as we speak direct from Richard Inman and James Tigue who have been working on Paul Shafers old Captain America to make a very good new truck to replace this one Also we are very pleased to announce that Fuchs Oils will be with us once again next year in a big way Fuchs are very good to us and we are truly grateful for there support Chris George the Vice Pres of Amtra and Chief Steward is currently undergoing a heap more nationally accredited courses and also working more with various worksafes to get further recognition for the safety standards we continue to try to implement, he did a great job in Melbourne and it was great to see all the trucks being killed before each run without a single failure, all trucks will have their wheel tethers finalised within the next 8 weeks as well as the new improved race car fire systems, AMTRA is really pushing ahead with safety standards and in time I truly believe we will be the world leaders which is not a competition of who can out do who but something good for monster trucks and the spectators in general, The new rides truck is still being held up by the idiots in customs in the USA its been there for two months while they try to establish why it doesn’t have a V.I.N number God Bless the USA and its customs system, hopefully one day it will be cleared, unfortunately now it wont be supported by the energy drink that made a commitment to fund it after they made all sorts of bullshit excuses to crawl out of the deal, its there loss not ours, Next seasons looking to be MONSTEROUS yet again with all states getting a attack of the all new Monsters Tour of Destruction,,,September will see us attack NSW and ACT then in OCT its over the Bass strait to Tasmania before returning to NSW then November see a Queensland Invasion including OUR BIGGEST SHOW EVER ,see elsewhere for full details this will be Nov 1 Decembers Back to NSW then Jan its Both Old and NSW,,February sees us head to South Australia, then in March April its over to W.A again, before Heading Back to South Aus in Late April, then Back to Qld For May then up to Northern territory in June,,,in between all this in early March three trucks will also invade New Zealand for a 6 show tour of the north Island so as you can see we certainly wont be sitting around, and just to top it off we have Dan Patrick building two brand new trucks minus the motors so we can retire two of our older trucks to tour the show circuit exclusively throughout the year All in all 2008 and 2009 looks like being yet another fun filled year for the KCs team also now if your trying to find us on the website you can go straight to the more monster truck friendly wwwmonstertrucksaustralia.com the old Kcs will still work as well Anyhow were off to the United States now for the next four weeks look forward to seeing you all in Sydney.
Best wishes

Sony playstation 3 sponsor a worldwide coup


That right not only are Sony Playstation injection money into the Monsters tour of destruction but also when their New Motrostorm 2 game is released in late september it will have a down load option that will allow players to download the Aussie Sony Playstation 3 Motorstorm truck Not a bad bit of exposure for a game that has sold just under a 100,000 copies in Australia ALONE,and the Sony deal doesn't stop there,,they will be helping to have special feature shopping centre displays that will see Six giant Sony Plasmas set up two playing Dvds and Four paling the new Motorstorm game leading up to each show,these screens will then move on to each venue on the day of the show and become part of the great pit parties with the winner going on to play the likes of Grant Denyer or our resident announcer Wade Aunger in the centre of the arena up on the giant screen,winning a Sony PLAYSTATION 3 for his or her efforts,, And of course there's the Motorstorm truck that will be seen at most shows over the next 12 months,,,and a full range of Sony Motorstorm monster truck merchandise will be available as early as Dapto showgrounds on Sept 20

 

Thanks Chris George

That's a big thanks to the Bigfulla,,the monster truck world in Australia need more like him if we are ever to be a real success,each year I go the the Clash of the titans show in Salt Lake city and the local truck is called Maverick,driver Ron Dunchan has a dozen or more dedicated crew followers who work day and night to help make sure the truck and support equipment all looks and works great and they are basically all volunteers,,,just this one guy has more volunteers than the ENTIRE monster truck industry in Australia no virtually no one wants to be involved in the trucks without putting their hand out,,Chris is one of the few exceptions,he knows the costs involved he knows none of us are getting rich out of this deal and like us he does it because he truly likes this industry,he,s a good man a great help and from myself and the rest of us a very big Thank You to the Tamworth Based Chris



Grant going good.

TV 7 Sunrise presenter Grant Denyer continues to impress in the Monster truck world,in the recent indoor show at Melbournes Rod Laver arena Grant surprised everyone including himself by achieving the fastest time in the oval track time trials Grants 27,29 sec time was a fraction faster than American James Tigue, Scooby driver Billy Featherby, Samsons Sam Xureb and Thundas Clive featherby who was disqualified for spectacularly taking down the entire back straight row of safety barriers on his second lap Grants freestyle wasn't to bad either taking out seond behind Billy in Scooby Doo,,Grant is most probably monster trucks greatest asset personality wise, he's hugely popular on Austrlian T.V ,becuase of his sucessful motor Racing achievements he's popular with race fans and with his humourous peronality he's a hit with people from all walks of life from all age groups,,,its always noted at the pit parties before and after the shows he's always the last to leave never refusing a autograph or photo,,,Grant has already commited to a further seven shows this season and the way he's going at present could be a firm favourite to seriously challenge for the SONY World Monster truck titles in Brisbane on November 1

Sony World Monster truck Championships where will it be?

Its the biggest show ever planned for anywhere outside of the United states of America ,it could be as many as Fourteen Monster trucks four jetvans,backflipping fmx,the countries biggest ever stadium fireworks spectacular.,,at least four of the USa Best monster truck drivers,death defying stunt acts,,a laser,fire and light show bigger than a U2 concert and much more all planned for Saturday November 1 In Brisbane,,but that's where it falls down,,,from there on in we have,nt got a clue where about's in Brisbane,,we originally had a deal to go to Brisbane then we got very unceremoniously dumped after 24 years at the Ekka and told not to bother returning,,so much for loyalty,,,, After months of being given the run around by Operations man Gary Ashby i (clive ) was given a call from Mr Tunneys second in charge in regard to doing monster trucks at their annual Ekka show,,i almost fell of the chair the same people had been telling me for 14 months they had issues with the trucks on the grass now all of a sudden because it was Ekka time this no longer matters,as does the legality of j jumping right beside the people,i most probably should,nt have but i told him to get stuffed subsequently we are no longer welcome at the Ekka,,the other problem was we had outgrown the venue in relation to crowds,,,we have since tried just about every venue in Brisbane ,,got Laughed out of the old ANZ stadium,,virtually yelled out of the chandler velodrome before we got in the office,,,and places like Albion Park and Mt Gravatt and the Obvious Archerfield speedway just wont hold enough people for this size show. Our last hope looks to be with Ballymore Rugby Union which could go either way its a nice venue we have been in long term discussions again and are hoping for a answer again over the next week but again this venue has a lot of the major problems Perth had,,lovely venue but also has matching lovely grass,,,time will tell keep watching the website for details over the next week,,in the meantime i am saddened by the despicable attitude of Tunney who would,nt have the slightest clue of our history at the Ekka venue,
