Tuff Trax

Tuff Trax

Tuff Trax was a popular syndicated television show featuring monster trucks and tractor pulling. The show first aired in 1989 and was one hour long, split between TNT Motorsports' pulling and monsters. The original hosts were Army Armstrong and Scott Douglass, with Kris Chapman later added as a pit reporter. Soon the show began focusing on the monster trucks and would use the entire hour to do so. There were a few weekly segments on each episode:

*Crunch of the Week - a crash from either a previously aired event, or a non-televised event.
*Power Play - sponsored by Nintendo, a wild moment from the current event, later renamed Power Drive in 1991.
*Monster Smash - the final round of racing, preceded by ominous "Jaws"-like music and special effects.

When the United States Hot Rod Association bought TNT they decided to keep the show but replaced Douglass and Armstrong with their announcer Bret Kepner. The USHRA edition of Tuff Trax aired three shows in 1991, then later renamed Super Trax. Monster Wars was to replace it two years later.
