What is the red light in the cab of the race trucks?
• Every MTRA Certified Monster Truck must be equipped with an RII (Remote Ignition Interrupter). This interrupter enables someone on the ground to shut the truck off with a remote control in just case something goes wrong. The RII must be tested before each run. The light in the cab signals to the track official that the RII is functioning properly. back to top • #21 Tell me more about the engines used in BIGFOOT. • The BIGFOOT racing trucks (8, 10, 11, 14, & 15) use a 572 c.i. engine, which puts out between 1200 and 1500 horsepower, and 1100 to 1300 foot/pounds of torque. BIGFOOT #16 runs a 565 c.i. engine which puts out even more power. BIGFOOT even runs a hemi for certain types of events, which can put out even more horsepower. They are assembled by an engine builder (Ed Dixon of Dixon Innovations at 314-739-7790).
