T-Maxx Livens Up Lima!

LIMA, OHIO (May 20, 2006) – The Traxxas® T-Maxx™ team arrived in Lima, Ohio, to invade the Allen County Fairgrounds for the 21st Annual Special Events 4-Wheel Jamboree.   Nineteen-year monster truck racing veteran and guest driver, Charlie Pauken, took the wheel for T-Maxx’s regular driver, Carl Van Horn, who was unable to make the event due to scheduling conflicts.  T-Maxx put on a great show, driving head-to-head with Avenger®, Big Dawg®, Nitemare®, Raminator®, and others throughout the weekend.

Friday night began with a bang as the Traxxas T-Maxx started things off in freestyle with an absolutely phenomenal run.  According to onlookers, T-Maxx put on a remarkable exhibition.  The other trucks hardly compared to Pauken’s skillful run.   
           
On Saturday T-Maxx faced technical issues off the line in the first round of racing. In the next round T-Maxx ran against Ramunation in a race that was so close that it had fans on their feet.  In Saturday’s freestyle, T-Maxx awed the crowd once again.  The show played out faster and even more exciting than Friday night’s.  Bigger air, longer slap wheelies, and dizzier cyclones prevailed for the remainder of Saturday and Sunday’s freestyle events.      

Fans in Lima were treated to one unforgettable display of monster truck action. Thanks to guest driver Charlie Pauken, T-Maxx was nearly untouchable by the entire field of trucks.

Next time out, the Traxxas T-Maxx will take the stage in the Southern Monster Truck Showdown in Gaffney, South Carolina, June 2nd and 3rd.
