For nearly a quarter century, the Hall Bros have long been surviving crashes on land, and in that same amount of time Livorsi Marine has been crashing through the open waters. Finally, in 2012 these two proven forces will come together and provide yet another tidal wave of presence and dominance to the monster truck scene. Livorsi Automotive, a recent spawn of Livorsi Marine, is excited to outfit the RAMINATOR and RAMMUNITION monster trucks with tachometers, gauges, switches, and other accessories that have stood the rigors and test of time on both performance off-shore powerboats boats and military vessels globally for the past 25 years. With a solid background in knowing one of the harshest environments in the world, Livorsi has been the instrument of choice for every top boat builder for the past 20 years, and was an easy decision for the folks at Hall Brothers Racing. There, they will be put into an equally demanding situation aboard two of the fastest monster trucks roaming the planet. Mike Livorsi, president of Livorsi Marine is proud to say, “We recognize that our customers and fans of monster trucks have a lot in common, so we are confident that partnering with the RAMINATOR and RAMMUNITION truck teams is the winning combination that will bring an elevated awareness to the lineup of standard and custom instrumentation and accessories that we have to offer, which is certain to crush the competition!”

In accordance with the current aims and ambitions of the MTRA to become a truly international organization, the MTRAE (Europe) which has for the last 9 years represented the MTRA within Europe, has now closed. The MTRA International to give the organization its full title is looking to actively gain members on a global basis. With monster trucks now being in use in so many countries, this is a vital expansion.

The MTRAE has seen its membership dwindle since the end of the EMTRC racing series in 2009, and the remaining truck owner members along with any previous and or new members will receive a warm welcome from the international membership team in the USA home office. Nigel Morris (a director of the MTRAE from day one) said “whilst it might bee seen as sad that the MTRAE is gone, it is clear that with the global reach of monster trucks reverting to central control in the USA rally is the only way forward”.

(The Board of Directors of the MTRA would like to offer sincere thanks to Nigel Morris for his years of dedication to the MTRAE and his promotion of safety within the monster truck industry. We look forward to his continued contribution to our efforts.)
