Monster Jam to Showcase Morris Students’ Crush Car

More than 4,000 tons of dirt will be brought inside MetLife Stadium along with 50 crush cars, vans and buses to create the colossal Monster Jam racing track and obstacle course.

A fleet of 16 of the most popular Monster Jam trucks will battle against one another in racing and freestyle competitions with high-flying jumps, wheelies, donuts, cyclones and more.

Although it’s not competing, one car will be there representing Morris County VoTech.

High school students from Morris County School of Technology will get the chance to learn about Monster Jam truck technology first hand during a personal visit from Alex Blackwell, crew member in Advance Auto Parts Monster Jam, on Wednesday.

Blackwell will offer motor sports industry career advice and highlight Captain’s Curse’s truck hi-tech features during a Q&A session with students from the school’s automotive program. 

The students will also unveil a crush car they transformed from a piece of junk into a work of art and school pride that will be displayed during Monster Jam “Path of Destruction” pre-event Pit Party from 1:30 - 5:30pm. One of two VoTech schools in the state were selected, the students worked as a team to develop a Monster Jam themed design to showcase their school’s talent. The designs were also inspired by one of the newest Monster Jam trucks, Zombie.

Blackwell’s visit is in advance of the upcoming Monster Jam “Path of Destruction” tour stop taking place at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ on June 15.
