Well, thanks again for a great post of a great event! No Problem did a great job, that guy and truck were real fighters; the same for Clydesdale, Buffalo Tremor, The Outlaw, Night Life and many more.. Bigfoot ruled but complications were usual for them. Equalizer instead scored straight and "easy" victories all the time. Great stuff. Favorite matches: No Problem-Bigfoot and Night Life-Buffalo Tremor.

You can water the track, but it doesn't mean that both lanes are going to take it the same. Pop lus you have to allow the water to absorb into the dirt so you'd want to water it in advance.
***** MTuncensored I'm also certain that at the time this was aired, USHRA had already purchased TNT. I think they had already purchased it when this show took place.
RIP Steve Wilke.✝️
Andy Brass and Bigfoot 8 was a lethal combination!
and this is how i learned steve wilke died (and how he died). RIP
❤

38:12 I bet the crowd is thankful for that crash barrier. Gravedigger would've had to change his name to Grim reaper
the buffalo tremor was one of the prettiest trucks on that circuit.
That version of Carolina Crusher stayed competitive for a long time

Is this the only race ever with both Night Life trucks qualifying & running in the same bracket?
Pain Crusher did a fine run.
Why do they only show top 10 in points. I'd like to see every truck with points.
What ever happened to this version of King Kong?

8:50ish USA 1 is missing the front carb. There should be 3. When he rolled it they must have blocked it off/broke it off.
40:31
19:56 1971 PLYMOUTH SATELLITE and a 1979 CHEVY CAMARO. BOTH CRUSHED. There oughta' be a Law against it.
Yeah, they should use imports. Imports sucks.
So is it at this point on they focus on monsters series and not doing the monsters/pulling theme of the show?
They stopped showing pulling around the Flemington episodes.I wish they hadn't stopped showing it. The 89 series was a blast!
Shame at least play out the season see who won what class.
***** MTuncensored I'm also certain that at the time this was aired, USHRA had already purchased TNT. I think they had already purchased it when this show took place.
NO PROBLEM BLEW BIGFOOT INTO THE WEEDS.
But who won the championship at the end Crazy? Just in case you don't know it was BIGFOOT!!! LMAO at you.
Bigfoot saw No Problem
Should have kept Rod Litzaw this cat was not as good and wined a lot
I think Rod was out healing up from a previous crash.
36:20 Brass more excuses Driver mod
Well, it must have been a heck of a coincidence that the exact same thing happened to Tremor minutes later in the same lane...
Make that the next two runs.
There were still some pulling shows that aired after the year was up. Bowling Green 4wd class I have somewhere
