Duhon takes win after win in CULT

Good ole’ Purvis, Mississippi… With the humidity pegged at 100%, and temperatures over 100 degrees, Purvis was one hot weekend for the Sudden Impact team with Sean Duhon and Benjamin Winslow.

Friday night action didn’t start out well for Sudden Impact as Benjamin suffered an engine malfunction that would have him out for the entire weekend. CULT Energy Activator on the other hand came out and swept the night away taking the wheelie win from Steven Hill in Monkey’n Around in a crowd cheer off. Sean Duhon continued into racing on an adrenaline rush thanks to many CULT drinks. He would knock out Monster Patrol in the racing finals going 2 for 2, and then rocked out in freestyle taking the win out from under Monster Patrol in another crowd cheer off.

Saturday night started out again with a wheelie competition. Steven Hill in Monkey’n Around barely defeated CULT Energy Activator in a crowd cheer off. Sean Duhon came back strong for racing, where h ...Continue reading...

Wet N Wild Weekend in Liberal, Kansas

Sudden Impact Racing hit up Liberal, Kansas this past weekend for one night of great action, and another night of slipping and sliding.

Sean Duhon in CULT Energy Activator arrived in style with team mate Benjamin Winslow in Sudden Impact. Bigfoot Bad Boy, War Eagle, Barbarian, and Heart Breaker were also on hand at Liberal Fairgrounds Speedway.

Friday night action heated up with Winslow in Sudden Impact getting a great vertical wheelie. Clinching the top spot, Benjamin knew he’d walk away with the win until Larry Swim in Bigfoot Bad Boy stole the show. Winslow would go on to grab second place.

Racing was close but very muddy due to rain earlier in the day. Sudden Impact went out in the first round against War Eagle. Cult Energy Activator beat Barbarian in the 1st round, and War Eagle in the 2nd round. Duhon ended up in the racing finals against Bigfoot Bad Boy but was unable to pull off the win, taking a 2nd place finish in racing.

Hometown show ends in success for Amsoil

Rutland, VT. - With many friends and family in the stands for a hometown show, Jon Zimmer did not disappoint Rutland, Vermont. Zimmer took the AMSOIL Shock Therapy monster truck to a big freestyle win and exciting new fans in the process.

“I saw people I hadn’t gotten to see in many years, and the home cooking was great,” said Zimmer with a laugh. “We fought through a few things and I changed my style up a bit, and everything worked out great for Amsoil and the Sudden Impact Racing team.”

The issues Zimmer mentioned included another bad stroke of luck with a tire. After patching up one tire and scrapping another from the previous weekend in Quincy, Illinois, Zimmer’s teammate, Kristy Edge in the AMSOIL Excaliber had the misfortune of blowing an engine, while Zimmer had a tire problem of his own. Edge was out for the weekend, but gave a tire to Zimmer to continue with his truck.

CULT and SI top performers in Montana

Billings, Montana was the stomping grounds this weekend for CULT Energy Activator and Sudden Impact. The Checkered Flag Productions event inside MetraPark Grandstand was a one night all out battle of the monster trucks consisting of wheelie, donut, and freestyle competitions.

Other performances during the weekend included mud racing, and rock crawling.

Ben Winslow in Sudden Impact started off the monster truck portion of the event with an almost straight up and vertical wheelie on the fresh crush cars. CULT Energy Activator came out fourth getting a good wheelie, but with the cars being crushed Sean Duhon didn’t have much to work with.

Ben Winslow just barely missed out on his chance to grab the wheelie win against Get’er Done (Mitch T.) in a crowd cheer off.

Donut contest went good for both trucks with the donut area being right outside of the mud pit. It became very slick and hard, allowing the Sudden Impact trucks to rock out with some insane ...Continue reading...

Monster Jam Summer Heat results from Quincy, IL.

Quincy, IL, how did you like the action this past weekend!? Excaliber and Amsoil Shock Therapy were just two of the many trucks doing battle in Quincy for the Monster Jam Summer Heat series at Quincy Raceways. The Thursday, Friday, and Saturday events showcased some of the best monster trucks from around the country including our team.

Monster nature sweetened the pot and tossed in rain prior to the Thursday night event. Mud quickly covered the trucks, and the action was soon underway on time with the added disadvantage of a track now coated with inches of mud, not great for roundy round racing where turning meant slowing the trucks down to a near stop to avoid sliding off the track.

Thursday night wheelie competition kicked off with Kristy Edge hitting the car stack and grabbing 14 points from the judges. The low score by the judges made Jon Zimmer in Amsoil Shock Therapy want to rip the fresh car stack apart, and he did grabbing 18 points and clinching a 3rd place finis ...Continue reading...
