The 2-Wheel Skills Challenge was up next and holy smokes, this is where the excitement really begins!

Grave Digger followed with a smash up performance, quickly snagging first place with a score of 9.658. Crowd fav Max-D scored a 9.374 placing him in second.
This being a triple threat series, the drivers will place in not just the monster truck portion but they will also be competing on ATV’s and Speedsters. This adds a fun little element and shows that the drivers are more multi talented than you would think.

Monster Jam Triple Threat Series Final Results
This event always gets me excited. Something about the roar of the engines just reminds me of my youthful days. So much fun to see this competition each year when it comes to Denver, a lot may not know but you are allowed to cast your vote during the competition on the Judge’s Corner app. A pretty neat interactive feature if you ask me! I would highly recommend checking out this show the next time they are in town. So much fun for the whole family! Hope to see you there next year!!
Till next time, stay tuned to Xposer Magazine… where you go, to be scene!
