A brief history of BIGFOOT® #17

During an MTRA visit to the USA, Nigel Morris, owner of L.A. Supertrux Ltd had discussions with Bob Chandler about the prospect of bringing BIGFOOT® back to the UK, and maybe touring Europe. It was during these discussions that the idea was formed to have a BIGFOOT® permanently available to the European public. Further discussions led to the plan being finalised for Nigel and L.A. Supertrux Ltd building and operating BIGFOOT® #17 "The UK BIGFOOT®".

That process was completed in 2003 and BIGFOOT® #17 has been wowing the UK fans ever since. With regular appearances throughout the summer competing in the EMTRC (European Monster Truck Racing Championship), BIGFOOT® #17 and Nigel Morris were proud to take the title of 2003 Pro-MT European Champion. BIGFOOT® #17 has since been placed 2nd in 2004 and joint third in 2005. BIGFOOT® #17 regained the championship in 2006 and was the first monster truck to take the title two years running, being the EMTRC Champion again in 2007!
