THIS IS MONSTER JAM

Here’s your guide to Monster Jam®, the most action-packed motorsports event on
four wheels. At the event, you will witness world-class driver athletes and the
most recognizable trucks tear up the dirt and compete in intense competitions of
speed and skill.   


MONSTER JAM TRUCKS

 




BY THE NUMBERS

 * Each Monster Jam truck is approximately 10.5 feet tall, 12.5 feet wide, 17
   feet long and weighs 12,000 pounds. 
 * A Monster Jam engine will generate 1,500 horsepower, thanks to a supercharger
   that forces air and fuel into the engine. It is powered by methanol fuel,
   consumed at the rates of three gallons a minute from a specially constructed
   safety cell.
 * The truck utilizes a four-link racing suspension with four main bars that
   link the front and rear axles to the frame. It rides on clusters of
   nitrogen-charged shocks that offer 30 inches of travel in the suspension.
 * The BKT tires are 66 inches in diameter and 43 inches wide, inflated to 23
   psi pressure, and (with wheel) weigh 645 pounds each.
 * The driver’s compartment is a steel safety structure, built from tubing and
   mounted to the truck frame.
 * The truck bodies are custom-built and constructed of fiberglass.
 * Each truck is transported in specially prepared trailers, which can include
   spare parts and as many as two trucks.

> MONSTER JAM!


DRIVERS



 

Monster Jam drivers come from all walks of life, but they are united by the
desire to compete at the highest level. There are many paths to becoming a
Monster Jam driver. Talent scouts are always on the lookout for those who can do
the job and new drivers make the roster every year.  Working in conjunction with
specialists and experienced Monster Jam drivers, trainees are taught everything
from the basic operation, safety, improving driver skills, and public relations.
Much of the training is done at “Monster Jam University” facility in Illinois,
which offers realistic tracks and obstacles in order to prepare the future
Monster Jam driver for what lies ahead.


TECHNICIANS



 

The unsung heroes of Monster Jam can be the technicians who are charged with
keeping the Monster Jam truck in tip-top condition. Like the Monster Jam
drivers, the technicians can come from many areas, but key consideration is
experience and education. Many have graduated from automotive-related programs
at technical schools. Specialties such as welding and fabrication and engine
maintenance are helpful. Much of the work is done in the field and they serve an
integral part in the success of any Monster Jam truck’s performance.


SAFETY


TRUCK SAFETY

The Monster Jam trucks are designed to protect the driver at all times. A
specially-constructed roll cage is built to house the driver, who is often
sitting directly in the middle. Specially constructed seats that mold to the
driver’s shape allows the work to be done with minimal distraction. A five-point
harness is mounted securely to the truck to help hold the driver in position.
The truck includes a receiver for a Remote Ignition Interrupter (RII). A signal
can be transmitted to the truck by way of a special radio, which will shut off
the engine. Each truck has a secondary on-off switch located at the rear on the
frame. Other safety features are designed, built, and mandated to keep the truck
safe and operational.


DRIVER SAFETY

Each driver is equipped with specified safety gear, starting with the
custom-fitted fire-resistant driving suit. The suit offers a minimum of three
layers of protection. The helmet meets Snell Foundation regulations for
fire-resistance while serving as part of the head-and-neck restraint system,
which includes a tested and approval harness system. The drivers’ hands are
protected by flame-resistant gloves which have a tacky grip side for steering
wheel control. The drivers’ feet are protected by special fire-resistant shoes
that also include a thin sole for optimal throttle and brake control.


FAN SAFETY

The safety of the Monster Jam fans ensures a pleasant experience. Track
designers include a “safety hold”, consisting of several rows of seats nearest
the venue’s show floor. This area must remain clear of spectators at all times
during a performance. Monster Jam works with each venue for evacuation plans and
other safety matters that may be unique to that location.
