Is it safe to drive a monster truck?
All motorsports are inherently dangerous, but monster trucks have some of the strictest safety guidelines of any motorsport.

Can I bring my friends and family to watch?
Yes, each driver may bring up to three (3) spectators.
What happens if I break the monster truck?
If the damage is due to parts failure you will be brought back to the garage area where the truck will be repaired and then sent back out to the training track. If the damage is due to driver negligence or not following direction from instructors or safety officials, Drive REAL Monster Trucks reserves the right to end your session without a refund.
How big are the obstacles?
The obstacles on the track can range anywhere from 3’ to 7’ in height. Sounds small? We’ll ask you again after you drive the monster truck.
What should I wear on the day of my monster truck driving experience?
Our suggestion is to wear comfortable clothes or bring a change of clothes to wear under a fire suit.
When do I pay the balance of the bill for my experience?
When you register online, you will be required to put a 25% deposit down to hold your date and experience. The remaining balance will be due upon arrival on the day of your experience if you are paying with cash, cashier's check, or money order. Credit card payments must be processed the night before your experience.

The track is 350'x100', with obstacles built in.

When they are not being used as driving experience trucks, our trucks tour the country as Stinger Unleashed, Pretty Wicked, and Bearly Tame.

All necessary safety equipment will be provided to you. When you arrive, the first thing you will do is be fitted for the proper gear and safety devices.
