After a slow start, Joe started heating up and managed to pick up a few freestyle wins late in the 2025 championship season and now will return to the El Toro Loco team with hopes of finding the magic that led to him to the top of the freestyle win leaderboard in 2024. I for one can\u2019t wait to see Freestyle Foley tear the horns off.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.monsterjam.com\/sv-se\/\">Jamey Garner<\/a> \u2013 Stadium Championship Series West<\/em><\/strong><em> \u2013 <\/em>Jamey Garner is back for fourth year in El Toro Loco where he hopes to ride the momentum of his bronze medal win in the Lucas Oil High Jump at World Finals XXIV to possibly a well deserved Lucas Oil Extreme Air award. The founder of Over Bored Motorsports will have four trucks on this series with the addition of his wife Deidra driving Megalodon, the returning Zack Garner in Wild Side, and Cole Venard in The Black Pearl.

The 10-year veteran will head back into the arenas in 2026 where he won the east series on his last arena tour in 2024. Arguably one of the most popular drivers in the sport, Castro will look to capture his third series trophy, earn an automatic bid to Monster Jam World Finals XXV and ultimately contend for his third world championship as well. I for one, am excited to see Armando back to causing carnage in these Monster Jam arenas!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.monsterjam.com\/sv-se\/\">MJ Solorio<\/a> \u2013 Arena Championship Series East<\/em><\/strong><em> \u2013 <\/em>The California native is back for his third series in Monster Jam after an impressive 2025 campaign which saw him win the bronze medal in the Utah Sports Commission 2-Wheel Skills Challenge at World Finals XXIV. Going from the independent circuit to MJU to El Toro Loco has been quite the ride for the former \u201cCali Kid,\u201d and he has earned every opportunity given to him and made the most of it. The sky is the limit for MJ Solorio. Will 2026 be the year he climbs to the top of the mountain?
