Monster Mutt Dalmatian

Monster Mutt Dalmatian is a custom bodied monster truck driven by Candice Jolly, Kristen Hope McClain, Kaylyn Migues and Cynthia Gauthier. The truck debuted in 2007 as a spin off of Monster Mutt and has become a staple of Monster Jam since, competing in every World Finals since 2007. In 2019, Kristen Hope McClain joins the team driving in the Triple Threat East Series and Kaylyn Migues drives in the Arena Championship Series.
