Tristan England crowned Series Champion at Monster Jam
Monster Jam crowned five series champions in May of 2023: Tyler Menninga (Grave Digger), Brandon Vinson (Grave Digger), Weston Anderson (Grave Digger), Adam Anderson (Grave Digger) and Tristan England(EarthShaker).
England stated to Monster Jam, “I came from a background with my dad (Shane England) dirt track racing, motocross, everything like that. And then he started wanting to pursue his dream of driving monster trucks and I just followed those footsteps.
“I’m very fortunate to drive with Monster Jam and I wouldn’t have it any other way but, growing up with my dad, with him always wanting to beat Grave Digger. It’s instilled in my blood,” added England.
England began his career in 2015 when he attended Monster Jam University and eventually found himself behind the wheel of his own ride; Blue Thunder. However, his dreams of competing in Blue Thunder would be put on pause as he said, “he wasn’t ready.”
England’s success came in 2017 after winning the Double Down Showdown Championship and then went on to win back-to-back Series Championships in 2018 and 2019. And now in 2023, he reigns again with his third win.
As Series Champion, Tristan received an automatic bid to compete in Monster Jam World Finals XXII at Nissan Stadium in Nashville on July 1.
“I don’t necessarily look back on all the wins or anything like that. I just, you know, have a good time with my friends on the track. And if there’s some competition, you know, watch out. But it feels really good to be the only truck that is not a Grave Digger that has won a series.” – Tristan England
