History:
Swamp Thing 4x4 is the newest
name for a Monster Truck that is steeped in history. Originally built
in America and based on a Dan Patrick (Patrick Enterprises) chassis, this
truck was originally called Dragon Slayer. After campaigning the American
Monster Truck circuit for a number of years the truck was given a refreshing
new look and reappeared as Captain Insano. At the end of the 2000 Monster
Truck Racing Season Captain Insano was boxed up and shipped to the UK.
During the winter of 2002 this Monster Truck was given the most thorough
and detailed refurbishment and raced for two year with a 3D body on over
the winter of 2004/2005 was refurbished again. This time fitted with a
Ford 2004 F350 Super Duty Body paint by Tony Dixon to mimic the old spirit
of Swampy.
