Each truck has its obvious difference in the body, but under the skin, all are basically the same apart from a few minor differences.
Powered by supercharged 540 cubic inch big block Chevy motors, they produce more than 1500 horsepower, running through a two-speed Hughes transmission.
The trucks are four-wheel-drive and four-wheel-steer and use every bit of that monstrous power to turn the huge 66-inch wheels.
Each monster truck is valued at $250,000, with the body alone costing $30,000.
The list of EMT trucks coming to Nowra includes Scooby Doo, The Convict, Extreme, Raptors Rampage and the Triple M Monster Truck and they will be driven by a team of experienced professionals including Australia’s leading and most experienced monster truck driver Troy Garcia, US superstar Kreg Christensen, Hayden McCleary, Michael Long and Hayden Francis.
