EVENT NOTES

The battle for the Overall Event Championship was heating up in Albany as everyone stepped up their game to take the title away from Stinger Unleashed. Dragon’s Darren Migues continued to rule the track as the Racing winner, while Team Scooby-Doo took the win in ATV Obstacle Course. However, the fight for the Overall Event Championship was between Grave Digger and Stinger Unleashed. Zane Rettew of Stinger Unleashed was able to take the top spots in Donuts and Freestyle. But that black and green recking machine had the final say in Albany. With Randy Brown’s win in two-wheel skills and a win in ATV Racing, it would be Team Grave Digger closing out the weekend in Albany as the Overall Event Champion.

EVENT NOTES

The energy in Times Union Center was contagious as the pursuit for the Overall Event Championship continued. Darren Migues in Dragon had a strong showing as he dominated in Monster Jam Racing. Linsey Read of Scooby-Doo gave a high flying performance as she took home her first Two-Wheel Skills win of the series. Zane Rettew, trying to retain the top spot, was a back-to-back Donuts winner. Team Scooby-Doo added must needed points win a win in ATV Racing, but Team Stinger Unleashed was able to receive a back-to-back win in ATV Obstacle Course. However, Zane Rettew’s passion led him to take home not only the Freestyle win, but another Overall Event Championship. Now all eyes are on Team Stinger Unleashed to see if they can sweep the weekend.

EVENT NOTES

Monster Jam fans could feel the excitement in Times Union Center as the first show in Albany, NY was about to begin. The Arena Championship Series kicked off with an epic battle for the first Overall Event Championship for the 2019 season. The fight for first place was between Randy Brown in Grave Digger and Zane Rettew in Stinger Unleashed. Grave Digger took home wins in Racing and the Two-Wheel Skills while Stinger Unleashed answered with wins in Donuts and the ATV Obstacle Course. Team Bad News Travels Fast was able to pick up its first win in ATV Racing. It all came down to Freestyle. Even though he placed second behind Scooby-Doo, it was the edge Zane Rettew needed to become the first Overall Event Champion. It was an emotional afternoon for Team Stinger Unleashed, but one that will always be remembered. With two more events in Albany, we will see if anyone can dethrone Stinger Unleashed from the championship.
