Bigfoot 14, 2015

Danny Maass said on Facebook:

Chalkboardfoot. Monster Nationals wanted it for first quarter when Chalkboard Chuck went away. The lower half of the body was done with blue chalkboard paint so the fans could write on it during pit party

Josh Gibson (Bigfoot Driver) said on Facebook:

Danny Maass is correct. The body was originally used on 10 summer of 2014 for a European tour. In the late fall the ViCor sponsorship went away, leaving 14 & 15 vacant for bodies. 14 had been wearing ViCor Brutus the late 2014 season, so going into 1st qtr 2015 running Monster Nationals tour decided to repaint the body with chalkboard paint and call it Birthday Bigfoot. We ran 3 Bigfoot trucks that 1st qtr at monster nationals for the 40th anniversary. Body moved to #11 once outdoor started and was on #11 in Springfield, Illinois for the wreck that ended 11's career.
