TMB Super Photographer Paul M. Harry started off another big weekend of monster trucks Friday night in Monroe, Michigan for the annual Midwest Monster Truck Events Monster Truck Madness!! Talk about a stacked lineup – Avenger, Amsoil Shock Therapy, Brutus, High Maintenance, Excaliber, Spike and Wrecking Crew.
The big stars did battle in wheelie, racing and freestyle and it was Jim Koehler starting off the night winning the wheelie contest, with a massive vertical leap. In racing it was all Chris Bergeron in Brutus while a hard fought freestyle would see Jon Zimmer in Amsoil Shock Therapy take top honors.
Big thanks to Tim Bush and Elliott Miller for a great event and of course to the man, Paul Harry, for the great photo gallery below. Click the link below to check them out!!

(Monroe, MI) Monster trucks return to the 2010 Monroe County Fair after a packed grandstand saw some of the best action in Michigan last year. 2009 Racing Winner Jon Zimmer will drive his Amsoil Shock Therapy monster truck against a stacked field of trucks including 2009 Freestyle Winners Jocelyn Perrin in High Maintenance and Jim Koehler in Avenger. “Its going to be a big show, big crowds, the big names of the sport going at it,” said Zimmer. “We’re all based from Michigan so that makes us want to win and run even harder for the fans,” he added. The action starts at 7 PM on Friday night, August 6th.
This year the Midwest Monster Truck Events group has compiled the largest and best lineup of trucks with names like Avenger, Brutus, High Maintenance, Amsoil Shock Therapy, Excaliber, Spike, and Wrecking Crew! Race fans can expect to see these mechanical beasts go vertical in a tailgate ripping wheelie contest and then go head to head in Chicago-Style bracket racing until the winner is crowned. But that’s not all, last is freestyle! These 10,000lb trucks will unleash their 1500 horsepower engines in an all out freestyle spectacle flying over everything in sight.
