Monster Truck - History

Monster Truck found popularity in the late 60s, when pickup trucks’ owners started to modify the vehicles, adding huge wheels and suspensions. Later they started participating in various competitions which included truck pulling, mud bogging, motocross races and car-eating robots. Monster Truck craze rose to such a level that the creators of these massive vehicles started to name their trucks. Some of the trucks that found the most fame during this time were ‘Bigfoot’ created by Bob Chandler, ‘Bear Foot’ by Jack Willman and ‘USA-1’ of Fred Shafer. Today Monster Trucks have gained worldwide popularity with different events and competitions taking place all over the US, Canada and even Europe. These events are promoted and sponsored by huge organizations, among which is Monster Nationals.
