AF flies high at Monster Jam
2009 Monster Jam fans got an eyeful at the Alamodome Jan. 11 in San Antonio when Air Force Afterburner and 15 other monster trucks made their entrance into the arena. Approximately 45,000 people attended the event. Afterburner has a 540 cubic-inch Merlin supercharged racing V-8 engine that churns out 1,425 horsepower for its driver, Damon Bradshaw. The 10,000-lb vehicle is equipped with four-wheel steering and can be made to continuously spin on a dime. The massive tires are 66" tall and together with the wheels weigh 750 lbs.
