EVENT NOTES

It was opening weekend for Stadium Championship Series 1 in Anaheim, CA, and the action inside Angel Stadium couldn’t have been more thrilling. Monster Jam’s newest truck, Bakugan Dragonoid, debuted in style as driver Camden Murphy took two of three competitions on the night en route to the Overall Event Championship, his first of his young stadium career. Murphy knocked off two former Monster Jam World Finals Racing champs, Son-uva Digger’s Ryan Anderson and Grave Digger’s Morgan Kane, on his way to the top spot in Racing. He also finished first in the 2 Wheel Skills Challenge, edging out multi-time World Champion, Tom Meents and Max-D. Cynthia Gauthier powered Monster Mutt Dalmatian Ice to a win in Freestyle, capturing her first career stadium Freestyle win. If tonight was any indication as to how the 2019 season will play out, there’s no doubt it’s going to be a wild ride!
