A Maine-Made Lobster Monster Truck is Coming to the Topsham Fairgrounds

Have you ever seen a lobster monster truck? You'll get your chance when The Renegade Monster Truck Tour makes a stop a the Topsham Fairgrounds and "Crushstation" a Maine made lobster monster truck will be part of the show.

Greg Winchenbach of Jefferson, Maine brought his idea of a lobster monster truck to life, by creating the 11,300 pound lobster with a 565ci V8 engine and a top speed of 68 miles per hour. That's one fast lobster!

Its name is Crushstation and it has a tail in the back and claws in the front which have the largest rubber bands you've ever seen around them so no one is accidentally pinched when the lobster pops a wheelie and drags its tail along the ground.

This YouTube video from Bancroft Cars tells the story of how Crushstation came to be and shows what stunts this lobster can do that no other can.

Crushstation is just one of four monster trucks coming to the Topsham Fairgrounds, along with Plane Crazy, Lumberjack, and Crazy Train.
