King Krunch, Avenger
Take Wins In Texas Saturday Night!!: The Great American
Monster Truck Race wrapped up tonight in Texas as two new faces took the
spotlight in victory lane!! The racing finals would feature a
rematch of Friday night's battle as Dan Runte in Bigfoot took out Daron
Basl in El Matador in the semi-finals, while David Smith in King Krunch
beat Debra Miceli in Madusa Bigfoot. Smith had the inside in the final
turn and powered out of it, edging Runte at the finish line by just over a
truck length to take the big racing victory. Freestyle would see standout
performances from many of the trucks, but in the end it was Jim Kohler in
Avenger holding the trophy after putting on a great show for the Texas
fans. Great American Monster Truck Race Night One In The Books!!: Dan Runte in Bigfoot and Carl Van Horn in Traxxas T-Maxx took the racing and freestyle victories in night one of the Great American Monster Truck Race!! Runte defeated David Smith in King Krunch to take the racing win, while Carl Van Horn in Traxxas T-Maxx laid down another wild, high energy freestyle run to grab another MLMT trophy. Van Horn's run edged out strong performances from, most notably, Debra Miceli in Madusa Bigfoot, Jim Kohler in Avenger, Chris Bergeron in Brutus, and David Smith in King Krunch.

CLICK HERE FOR THE CIRCLE K MONSTER TRUCK BASH PHOTO GALLERY!! Major League of Monster Trucks Rocks Charlotte!!: The Circle K Back to School Monster Truck Bash kicked off a new era for the sport as the Major League of Monster Trucks officially arrived last night in Charlotte, NC!! The prestigious racing title would not be one easily won, as the drivers would have to contend over a complex, technical course which featured a bus as the first obstacle. Mark Hall in Raminator started off the night by taking the top qualifying position and never looked back, ultimately meeting Dan Runte in Bigfoot in the racing finale. A great battle ensued between the two veteran drivers with Hall taking the big victory in Raminator!
The event also featured a long jump competition which would put the trucks to the test as drivers attempted to one-up each other's distance. Dawn Creten in Scarlet Bandit started off the competition with a great leap of 70 feet off the center bus stack, and one by one, other trucks failed to match her mark. Only one truck remained as Creten still held the lead, but that one truck was Equalizer with driver Mike Hawkins behind the wheel. Hawkins roared up the dirt ramp and soared to a distance very similar to that of Creten. The crowd waited in suspense until the news came over the intercome, a distance of 74 feet for Hawkins who was declared the winner!
Freestyle would close out the evening's competition. As the track announcers put it, the racing is for the drivers but freestyle is for the fans! Strong performances came from many of the trucks but when Carl Van Horn in Traxxas T-Maxx took to the track, the bar was raised to new heights. CVH laid down an exciting, fast-paced run that ended with an impressive combo move that began with a huge hit on the RV camper, riding the landing out in a wheelie, then leaping over the car set before finally rolling after a bad bounce. Jim Kohler in Avenger was next to the track and put on a great freestyle, but his finishing move--blasting through the RV camper before rolling the truck onto its side--came after the 90-seconds had elapsed, not counting toward his final score. After Equalizer's run fell short as well, Carl Van Horn was officially crowned the Back to School Monster Truck Bash freestyle champion!
The first major event for the newly formed MLMT series lived up to its billing as one of the biggest of the year, and they are just getting started. Texas, Las Vegas, Kentucky, Memphis, and Nashville, get ready because you are next on the '07 MLMT tour! A huge thanks to Joe Froome, Rich Schaefer, and the entire MLMT crew for their hard work to put together this new series and for beginning to take the sport of monster trucks to the next level.

The great night of Figure-8 monster truck racing started with David Smith in King Krunch taking fast qualifier. The biggest upset of the night came in the first round when Ron Duncombe in Maverik Monster Trakker took out Grave Digger when Pablo Huffaker spun out in the corner.
The second round would see Dan Runte in Firestone Bigfoot taking out teammate Keith Sturgeon in Bigfoot, Aaron Basl in Blacksmith defeating Maverik Monster Trakker, and King Krunch beating teammate Daron Basl in El Matador. Unfortunately Smith toasted a motor in King Krunch which would put an early end to what was shaping up to be a promising evening.

fast-loser from the previous round, and also coming back was Daron Basl,
replacing the sidelined King Krunch. Dan Runte put away El Matador to
advance to the championship race. Sturgeon made the most of his second
chance, defeating Blacksmith and winning the chance to meet Runte once
