Monster Trucks

Watch in amazement as “Big Pete”, the Monster Truck of all Monster Trucks crushes everything in its path – caravans, cars, you name it Big Pete will walk all over it!

Weighing in at 3 tons and standing 12ft tall by 12ft wide, it’s the ultimate answer to entertaining children of all ages.

The phenomenon of Monster Trucks started back in the late seventies when a number of pickup enthusiasts liked the idea of making their pickups bigger & better. One man named Bob Chandler, who had stuck some large tyres on his Ford F250 pick-up truck, decided to drive over a couple of junk cars in a field, to promote his 4x4 shop. A few months later he did it again, but this time it was at a stadium in front of a crowd. That truck was called Big Foot.

Monster trucks have come along way since then, today’s trucks are so technically advanced, compared to the first monster trucks that we first saw back in the mid to late eighties. Today’s trucks all have lightweight tubular chasis frames and fibreglass bodies.
