Great show. I say it again, nothing like old school monster trucks, just look all these beauties. I always prefered Bigfoot a bit but Duraliner Giant was just awesome (and Lon Ranger, and all the others) 39:45 You won't see a beautiful image like that in modern monster trucks, the best of the classic rivalry, flags included! Of the pulling trucks, I liked especially that 429 powered Virginian. Thanks for sharing this.
That crazy stuntman almost landed on Bigfoot!
budwiser boss to Dylan Mullaney. wtf is wrong with us.
Keep it up.
Wicked show! Thanks for sharing.
Everyone truck except Excalibur - "Careful throttle modulation"
...meanwhile
Excalibur - "Floor it!"
I can remember the sick feeling in my stomach when Excaliber got pulled from the line agains Bigfoot. That race, I guarantee would have been a classic. Ex' was the better truck by far.
Thank you for uploading this video man! One of the best USHRA shows of the 80’s! I got a question though. Was there ever a Return of the Monster Trucks that showed the truck pulling?
Not to my knowledge.
@@Mistertbones ok. Just figured I’d ask.
Some of the edits / weird camera angles of these early broadcasts are so frustrating from a racing aspect... TNT & HART eventually figured it out. The edits make it feel more like a spectacle than a race. That said at the same time these early events are so fun to watch. Thanks for the uploads!!!
Hart Productions had some pathetically awful camera and editing work. They would clip different rounds and days of racing together. Show people in the crowd drinking beer and eating popcorn while there was action to be seen on the track.
Agreed... I must be thinking of the PowerTrax... I'm thinking early(ish) races with Dave Grimm at the helm... like Fulton County and Charlotte. They typically had a camera set up side line with the finish and would nearly always show it, and they wouldn't do as many close-ups of individual trucks. Plus, the primary shot from the balcony in a lot of these indoor USHRA shows doesn't do the races justice.
