"I’ve been waiting several months to share some Awesome news with everyone. Gauger Motorsports is proud to announce, we have been working on a very special project in the off season. We have been given the opportunity to run the most iconic name in monster trucks.
“BIGFOOT”. This opportunity is by far the biggest honor in my nearly 32 year career in the monster truck industry. I would like to thank JR Rouse, Full Throttle Monster Trucks and the entire BIGFOOT organization for having the faith in me and the Gauger Motorsports team to represent their great organization. Please check out our schedule on Full Throttle Monster Truck’s on Facebook, or go to Gauger Motorsports. Com website for our complete schedule. Thanks to our Gauger Motorsports crew , Kathy Gauger, Scott Bryant, Brian Seibert Anthony Miller, Nick Shinn, David Shinn and thanks to all our friends and fans for supporting us through the years. Special thanks to Paul Harry for all the great pictures from our first event this past weekend.
