This year, the Monster Jam lineup will feature Tyler Menninga in the infamous Grave Digger that achieved a place in the Guinness World Records book for the highest monster truck ramp jump, Brianna Mahon in Whiplash, Cory Rummell in Rage and Kraig Champion in Brutus. The remaining four trucks set to compete in the event are still being determined.
