Track: Indoors, a pulling track with a set of 8 cars in the middle.
Lineup: Fred Shafer (Bear Foot V), Jim Kramer (Bigfoot VI)
Results:
Freestyle:
Kramer
Racing:
Shafer
Distance Jump:
Shafer
Notes: This event featured one of the first appearances for Fred Shafer's lightweight Bear Foot Racer. The truck broke a power steering belt almost immediately, but was able to continue after replacing it. Shafer was running an experimental tire on the truck, which required a higher air pressure. Because of this, the truck was very boucy, and in fact bounced so hard during the racing portion of the event that it ripped off the door. In other damage, Jim Kramer's Bigfoot was barely able to make the event after breaking several components of the front end in the previous night's show. Luckily, the team was in St. Louis, home of Bigfoot, and were able to take the truck back to the shop and fix it during the night.
