​Trivia

• This event featured very few sponsor banners, with Monster Energy being the only sponsor truck present for this event.
• The track for this event had a large, open square in the middle, with no dirt or obstacles.
• Todd LeDuc performed a backflip without a purpose-built ramp. He hit the cut side of a van obstacle and pinned the throttle, similar to how Cam McQueen in Nitro Circus attempted a backflip in Jacksonville 2010.
• The trucks' theme songs were played at a quieter volume at this event, likely to help people concentrate on the trucks.
• For the scores for the wheelie and freestyle competitions, only one digit was displayed after the decimal point instead of displaying three digits after the decimal point (e.g., 9.286).
