AMARILLO, TX (02.02.26) – The KICKER Monster Truck Series was Livin’Loud in the Amarillo National Center of Friday and Saturday January 30th and 31st. Lorin Morrell, Maddog_Media, orchestrates the KICKER Monster Trust events and arrived on Thursday for set up activities.
Early Friday Monster Trucks began to park on the event floor.
The National Center seats 10,000 and the arena floor is 45,000 square feet that’s terrific setting for fans to look down on the action on the track. “Several rows of the bleachers were moved back for safety. Once the doors opened the action was non-stop for the 3 Pit Parties that preceded the Monster Truck action on the track” Morrell related.
The Friday evening pre-race Pit Party attracted attendees as soon as the doors opened.
Soon the stands would be filled as a racing action was set to begin.
Fans on the track for the pre Monster truck action Pit Parties viewed the Monster Trucks up close, met the drivers and took photos. For an additional fee fans could also take a ride in a Monster Truck. Bigfoot 4X4x4X, Troublemaker, Veteran, Monster Moose, American Scout and Outlaw Wrangler were top Monster Truck on the schedule.
Fans were ready for the Monster Truck action.
The Saturday night Pit Party had hundreds of fans checking out the rides.
“You could feel the excitement and energy at the event. The area’s audience members get around in trucks, side by sides, boats and golf carts and KICKER offers options for all. When Monster Trucks began flying over cars and doing tricks the cheers rang out and echoed across the National Center” Morrell added.
Flying over rows of cars.
“I also had a surprise visit from Bobby Crawford from JD Glassworks in Lubbock. We have spent time at previous events and they do great work. Super he made the 300+ miles to hook up at the Monster Truck event in Amarillo. On the PA system the audience was totally engaged in track action and there was Livin’Loud branding from Kicker. Looking forward to the next Monster Truck event” Morrell concluded.

PITTSBURGH, PA (01.28.26) – Team Nutz, a very proactive 12volt retailer in the Pittsburg area, had a very strong showing at the 65th Annual World of Wheels at the David Lawerence Convention Center in downtown Pittsburgh January 23-25. This year Team Nutz had an even larger footprint than at the 64th Annual World Of Wheels. The massive snow event across the US prompted the last day, Sunday, to be cancelled. Team Nutz has been on the World of Wheels event in Pittsburg since 2003.
Attendees were welcomed to the very large Team Nutz booth to see a large selection of demos and displays.
The Fuel Required booth was also packed throughout the event.
The Team Nutz 70’ x 90’ booth was filled with demo vehicles, tents, product displays, live installations and importantly attendees. Several demo vehicles were experienced by attendees in the passenger seat non-stop every hour of the event.
Also new this year was a sister company Fuel Required with a very large space that spotlighted 20 classic vehicles plus a dozen more Team Nutz demo vehicles. This year a booth was set up spotlighting Women Of The Show Car World. Nina Nuttall’s decked out Jeep with ‘I’m Trash’ on the license plate was in the special booth.
Attendees are lined up to scan QR Codes, pick up swag and a Team Nutz T-shirt.
Nina Nuttall’s ‘I’m Trash’ Jeep in Women of the Show Car World booth.
Ed Nuttall, for Team Nutz, stated, “The attendance this year was reported to approach 20,000 and members of the crowd were really interested automotive enthusiasts. We had literally over 10,000 customized swag items including pens, stickers, screw drivers and lanyards to hand out to attendees. To drive engagement this year we printed custom QR Codes on handouts, graphics on banners and more to connect consumers with our website and DIY-Store along with Instagram, Facebook and Google platforms. We have tracked hundreds of QR Code scans and we gave out 600 custom Team Nutz T Shirts. Already we are blasting out responses and a load of social media posts highlighting action from Team Nutz from the event.
After completing his presentation to the 1600 high school students, Ed Nuttall pictured in the aisle, held up his phone as all of the students yelled “TEAM NUTZ”!!
This entry welcomed all to the Fuel Reuired area on the show floor.
Continuing, Nuttall relayed “On Friday morning area high school high students were bussed to the Convention Center. We met with 1600 high school students in an upstairs meeting room before the World Of Wheels opened where we highlighted our automotive upgrades they could check out in our booth plus potential career opportunities in the automotive industry.”
“All at Team Nutz and our partners certainly put a lot into pulling off this event. Our staff of 15 worked for over 3 days to set up our booths. We put our company and products in front a very large crowd reported to have topped 20,000. Literally thousands will go home with some swag with our name on it too….many memories too. I think the World Of Wheels will once again drive business going forward. We look forward to more big events at the David Lawrence Convention Center in the coming years” Nuttall concluded.
