Date: January 3rd, 1990.
Track: Indoors, a set of 8 cars. Finish line is 20ft. past the cars.
Lineup: Gary Sartin (Skoal Crusher II), Randi Lynn (Hot Tempered), Jeff Bainter (High Voltage), Kirk Frankish (Taurus II), Todd Blaeser (Hot Stuff), Warren Davis (Bearfoot III), Mike Welch (Monster Mash), Gene Patterson (Bigfoot VII)
Results:
Qualifying: Sartin 4.20 Lynn 7.70 Bainter 3.76 Frankish 5.61 Blaeser 4.99 Davis 4.85 Welch 6.62 Patterson 5.49
Round 1: Bainter (4.38) def. Patterson (4.50) Davis (5.21) def. Welch Blaeser (6.19) def. Lynn (6.97) Sartin (4.53) def. Frankish
Semifinals: Davis def. Bainter Sartin def. Blaeser
Finals: Tie first race Sartin def. Davis
Notes: This was the first nationally televised event in the Camel sponsored USHRA Mud and Monster Series. This was slightly controversial within the ranks of the USHRA due to the fact that truck and tractor pulling would no longer be televised. This would be the only USHRA appearance for Randi Lynn's Hot Tempered Jeep, and the final appearance for Mike Welch's Monster Mash, though Welch would continue to campaign the truck locally for years to come. The first race in the finals between Warren Davis' Bearfoot and Gary Sartin's Skoal Crusher ended in a tie, one of the first times this had ever happened in the USHRA.
