With the excitement of a new chapter in Monster Jam beginning at the legendary Ohio speed plant obvious among both the fans and the superstar line-up on hand the competition was intense from the start, and Grave Digger gave the crowd even more to cheer about with an incredible wheelie that ended with the black and green wrecking machine planted on the tailgate, the truck stuck in that position until assistance from the track construction team got Grave Digger back on four wheels and Dennis Anderson had the honor of holding the first ever Monster Jam winner’s plaque as Grave Digger was the clear wheelie contest winner. Grave Digger got some serious air and ended up on his side in freestyle competition Friday night Crew Chief Daniel Crawford and the Grave Digger crew got busy to make some quick repairs from the spectacular Digger wheelie and it was mission accomplished when Grave Digger rolled to the line with seconds remaining on the one-minute clock after El Toro Loco had staged at the starting line. Grave Digger knocked off El Toro Loco in round one of racing, then Dennis would win a family competition by defeating his son Adam and The Legend in the semifinals, and then claiming Grave Digger’s second championship of the night by beating Son-uva Digger in the UTI Championship Round. In the Advance Auto Parts Service is our Best Part Freestyle competition the huge track and big obstacles at Eldora allowed the world class line-up to go big and bigger, delighting the fans with an amazing battle. Son-uva Digger took the lead and withstood a high flying performance that included the save of the night from The Legend, and Ryan was in the hot seat as the leader when his Dad roared onto the track as Grave Digger went for the sweep of night one at Eldora.
