Obsession Racing 2018 Press Release #2

MENIFEE, CA – February started out in San Diego California for Monster Jam on the Saturday the 3rd.  Obsessed is solely running for Monster Jam this year as Rick has back issues and needed time to heal. Eric put on a fantastic show for freestyle and made it into the bonus category!  The following Saturday Eric did another show for Monster Jam in Anaheim California.  Eric was one the few who caught some of the biggest air of the night and made it to the second round of racing.  Staying in California the Obsession Racing team had their next event in Oakland.  This event was held on Saturday and Sunday.  Saturday night Eric won El Torro Loco in his round of racing! El Torro bucked into Eric during the race like a mad bull!  In freestyle Eric had massive air which ended with a bent four link bar that ended his run.  On Sunday Eric’s truck broke an input shaft in his transmission and was unable to run the full length of the show.  For the last weekend in February Eric had another Monster Jam show in Nampa Idaho.  This event was one show on Friday night and two events on Saturday.  This was a great weekend for Eric! He dominated in racing in all three shows winning Max D & Grave Digger along the way and Saturday he was the event winner for that show.

For Obsession Racing’s first event in March was another Monster Jam show in Reno Nevada. The events were held on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.  On Friday and Saturday night Eric put on another phenomenal show.  He was making record breaking time in racing on Saturday night and doing awesome in freestyle!  He had a fuel issue and the Obsessed truck was unable to run on Sunday.

On the 25th of March Eric’s truck was filmed for the show America’s Got Talent.  This show will be aired on Tuesday May 26th  on NBC.  It was a pleasure meeting all the judges.  Simon took a liking to Eric and they had a nice time visiting.  We are excited to see it air!
