The info was taken directly from the Motorplex website. It has now been removed from the Extreme monster trucks Australia website.

I can only explain it as hype for the show.

Besides, if Clive qualified for Vegas, don't you think he would be over there on that date and not in Perth.

Actually Mark Gilbert in a publicity interview before the Adelaide show also mentioned that Clive had supposedly qualified for the WF in Vegas. So I reckon it's a bit of hype....

Then again..................... :shock:

umm.. I was just reading the Perth Motorplex's facebook and people were posting opinions on the monster show... :?

well.. among others One person mentioned there was no racing at all (it was specified in the program) and a lack of many obstacles (I only saw 1 car stack in the photos) does anyone know the go from Clive ? I would hate for him to cop the bad reviews from Motorplex's mistakes.

Last show at the motorplex was not a racing show. There were 4 different stacks of cars on the arena but it was always a freestyle show. the next one is going to be the whole race then freestyle deal.

welcome to DownUnder Monsters

fellow west aussie are you ?

I was only going by what was said and in the free 4 page program they gave out (or at least I read the picture motorplex posted) so are you a normal Motorplex crew member or just got a job at the monsters show ?

I regularly go to the Drags myself except this weekend im heading to the Bunbury monsters show

awesome stuff, I wish I was going again after the fantastic bunbury show

I used to be a regular at the speedway when they ran the bikes, my dad was the crew chief for the state champ at the time and also a well known engine builder for teams too

since the bikes no longer have events at the plex he has got out of it and I dont ever go the the speedway aside from the odd occasion

I will be buying some scratches this week to see if I can go haha but either way have a great night

Not sure if anyone has seen the latest news from the motorplex but it was announced yesterday that the australian team was to include ex West Coast Eagles player Troy Wilson who will be driving Raptors Revenge ( which is a shame as i love that truck most of all ). Those who dont know Troy has been dabbling his hand at driving various race vehicles since retiring from proffesional football not always to the best results...

A couple of questions .

How hard is it to get into driving one of these beast as it looks like someone with NO experiance (or talent ) can get into one.

How long do you think he will last ?? one off drive or maybe a full time spot
