Samson With its brawny build,
Samson embodies the might of monster truck
racing. Samson's specialty is strong-holding its
opponents into submission. Those sinewy arms are
a fearsome trademark in this sport of strength
and skill.Driver/owner Dan Patrick is still out
there making his mark with Samson, just as he's
been doing since 1994. In that first year, at the
Summer Nationals in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania,
Samson won its first Penda Point Series event
beating out the likes of Snake Bite and BIGFOOT
(twice!). The victory over the BIGFOOT trucks was
particularly sweet for Dan, who started his
monster truck career building race trucks for
BIGFOOT 4X4, Inc., before heading out on his own
to make his Samson dream a reality.Dan comments
that monster truck racing is a bit different now
than it was when he first became involved. He
says, "The trucks are considerably faster
and more advanced through technology." He
adds that the sport will continue to evolve.
However, his favorite thing about monster truck
racing is still entertaining the fans.And, the
fans love Samson. Dan says that kids love monster
truck racing so much because of the size of the
trucks and their names. He encourages those
interested in becoming involved in the sport, but
informs them that it is like anything else,
"You have to devote a lot of time, energy
and concentration to succeed."If players
have a taste for victory, Dan maintains they must
choose Samson--the strong arm of monster truck
racing--as their truck in Monster Truck Madness
2. But, he warns them not to forget that crashing
is part of the game! |
