The month starts with the fourth Monster Jam event ever held at Eldora Speedway near New Weston, Ohio. The BB&amp;T Center in Sunrise, Florida, brings the action back indoors for three shows on August 13-14.<\/p>\n<p>Fresh from a win in Rotterdam in The Netherlands, Tom Meents and Max-D<sup>TM<\/sup>&nbsp; will be looking for a repeat of a 2013 Racing win at New Weston and more. The competition won\u2019t sit idly by with 2013 New Weston Freestyle champ Ryan Anderson and Son-uva Digger\u00ae returning for a second shot at victory. New Weston fans will get their first look at Salinas winner Gas Monkey Garage<sup>TM<\/sup> (B.J. Johnson) and the always popular Scooby-Doo!<sup>TM<\/sup> with Nicole Johnson at the wheel. Fan favorites like Grave Digger\u00ae (Pablo Huffaker) and El Toro Loco\u00ae (Chuck Werner) are sure to provide additional intensity to the competition.<\/p>\n<p>The mid-summer classic at Sunrise has a long list of storied winners with a couple of them headed back in 2016 with hopes of expanding their victorious records. In his three previous appearances at the wheel of Grave Digger, Gary Porter dominated racing with six wins in nine competitions. This time, Porter\u2019s bringing Carolina Crusher\u00ae to the battle, giving Sunrise fans their first look at this truck. Many drivers in the field are making their first visit, including Mark List (El Toro Loco), Bailey Shea (Scooby-Doo!) and Bari Musawwir (Zombie<sup>TM<\/sup>). For the first time since 2010, Grave Digger will be driven by Randy Brown, who leads all Monster Jam competitors with 27 Freestyle wins in 2016. Last time in Sunrise, all three Freestyle events fell to Randy Brown and Grave Digger.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more about the upcoming events <a href=\"http:\/\/www.monsterjam.com\/en-US\/tickets\">here<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>(Photo by Stephen Hopkins)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monster Jam\u00ae fans in Ohio and Florida are gearing up for August&nbsp;events as part of the 2016 Monster Jam schedule.
