Our last stop on the West Coast Tour was Phoenix, AZ. It was great to be in Arizona again!
On Friday morning, we had media again. Everything went well.
For Arizona, Spike had a brand new body... with a touch of pink! You would think Stephanie had something to do with it, but no! Actually, we did not paint this body, we had the people at Modatomic Custom Painting do the Spike and Brutus bodies for the West Coast Tour, hence the "special Spike body!

The Monster Blog: Avenger and Madusa make contact crossing the finish line in round one of racing at Chase Field. Koehler would get the win and make his way to the semi's before being ousted by Grave Digger.
The Monster Blog: "Jim Koehler in Avenger laid down an impressive freestyle run that was vintage Mr. Excitement with plenty of big air and two massive crossthread jumps, the second ending with Avenger flipping wildly. Koehler followed up his freestyle by jumping into the Chase Field pool."
Short recap for other trucks: Wheel came off of Wrecking Crew, Spike had steering problems but did some cyclones, and Brutus got a nice freestyle, but ended on its roof, which even cracked the chassis...
