Nitemare
Competing against this
5-ton terror could be a lot worse than just a bad
dream. Nitemare not only leaves its rivals in the
dust, it leaves them trembling on the
track.Owner/driver Andy Hoffman participated in
truck and tractor pulling events for over ten
years before he began racing monster trucks in
1994.Andy thinks that the speed and height his
truck achieves in outdoor monster truck racing is
an absolute dream. He's happiest when he's going
head-to-head against Overkill.Andy's worst
monster truck nightmare came true in Madison,
Wisconsin when he had his first rollover.Speaking
of nightmares, the truck got its name in the
early 80's while it was being worked on in the
shop. Someone exclaimed, "This is a
nightmare!" and the rest, as they say, is
history.Andy acknowledges that it takes a lot of
money, a working knowledge of physics, and a very
understanding spouse to get into this sport. He
gives monster truck racing a great deal of his
time and energy. He can see why the younger folks
like to watch the monster trucks, "They do
in real life what children have done with their
Matchbox cars for years
. Run over stuff!
"Andy says if players want to give their
competition a nightmare they may never wake up
from, they should definitely be driving Nitemare
while playing Monster Truck Madness 2. With a
devilish grin he advises, "Get into it
quick, don't let up and never look back."
