Monster Jam World Finals 12

Monster Jam World Finals 12 was held on March 24, 2011 at Sam Boyd Stadium. This year would be quite different as the track was designed by the drivers themselves, in response to their complaints of the track last year. This new track design would be used with slight modifications for the next two World Finals. This would also be the first World Finals since 2004 without a water feature, but Jim Koehler decided to bring out a stretch limo with a hot tub as an alternative.

Track Layout
Center- Instead of car pads, the racing jumps were two dirt jumps built on the side of a step up ramp

Left side- Bus dirt jump, a car pad plateau, and a container used as a backflip ramp

Right side- Cross section step up jump, a car pad plateau, and another step up jump with two box vans added later

Far side- A 3 jammer stack jump

Near side- A jammer stack
