T-Maxx to Enter Fall 4-Wheel Off-Road Jamboree Nationals
INDIANAPOLIS, IN (September 21) – Get ready to rumble, monster truck fans; the Traxxas T-Maxx™ is prepared to dominate the 24th Annual Advance Auto Parts Fall 4-Wheel Off-Road Jamboree Nationals!
USHRA Fan Choice Award winner John Seasock will drive the larger-than-life-size replica of Traxxas’ #1-selling R/C monster truck in the Advance Auto Parts Monster Truck Thunder Drags® Friday, Saturday and Sunday at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. Cameramen will record all the action from “the Indy Jambo,” widely considered the best truck show in the United States, for ESPN2 telecasts.
“It’s the last Jamboree of the year, and I’m really looking forward to it,” Seasock said. “There will be a lot of great monster trucks there. We’re just going to take it one round at a time and do our best. The T-Maxx has performed very well in the Jamborees this year, and we want to end the season on a high note. The Jamborees are good family events, and I really enjoy them. The weather is supposed to be beautiful in Indianapolis this weekend, and we’re going to have a blast.
“Rusty and Melissa Simpson are sponsors of mine who own a NAPA Auto Parts store. They’re great friends and they know all about monster trucks. I really appreciate them crewing for me this weekend.”
The T-Maxx will compete against Raminator®, Rammunition®, Black Stallion®, Nitemare®, Iron Warrior®, Avenger®, Big Dawg® and Bigfoot®. Seasock has reached the semifinals or better against these and other Special Events Performance Series monster trucks in five of nine 4-Wheel Off-Road Jamborees in 2005.
The Advance Auto Parts Monster Truck Thunder Drags will take the green flag at 5pm Friday and Saturday and at 4pm Sunday. The monster truck drivers will sign autographs in the Souvenir Tent by the Main Stage following Saturday’s racing program.
Advance tickets cost $15 for adults and $10 for children. Adult tickets will cost $18 on the day of each show. There will be no charge for children under the age of three.
