How did you get started in Monster Trucks?

JK – Our 4X4 trucks kept getting bigger and bigger. More power, better parts, and eventually, I had a monster truck. Avenger debuted in 1997. The Avenger name came from my father’s drag car. Growing up from mud trucks to cars all had the Avenger name on it.
