Sonny Dohrmund & After Burner

2008 Season

The After Burner Racing Team has wrapped up the Special Events Jamboree points series with still one more event to come in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Sonny and the After Burner Team has traveled a lot of miles through the summer with some ups and downs, breaking a few parts on the truck. The final event will be held in Indianapolis, Indiana September 19-21, Sonny has already aquired enough points to win the Championship title for the 2008 Season before the finials. Sonny would like to thank the sponsors that have been on board for the season BDS Suspension, Truxedo, DualLiner, Sport Truck Specialties, Pro Comp Tires & Wheels. 

Sonny and the After Burner has been seen this year on the Outdoor Channel, The World of Trucks and on Spike's Xtreme 4X4 and in the Low-Range magazine along with the National Mudder magazine.

New Name — New Look

The MAC ATTACK has new name and a new look, now known as the AFTER BURNER, the comments at the Springfield, Mo. jamboree were great. Everyone likes the new look. The race at Springfield is on asphalt with dirt jumps making for an interesting course, especially in the corners. There were three shows, with the nation’s best competitors. The new and improved AFTER BURNER team picked off a win at each show, having the fastest time for the weekend and 1st place for the best appearing truck (thanks to the vinyl wrap from Hale Printing in Davenport, Iowa).

2007 Season Begins

Starting the '07 summer season, the team traveled to Fredericksburg, Texas March 31st thru April 1st for the Special Events 4 Wheel and Off Road Jamboree. Several inches of rain blanketed the fairgrounds which resulted in extremely muddy conditions With some of the nations top competitors, Sonny in the Mac Attack qualified third Saturday afternoon. Sunday was a whole new day; hot and dry, racing was drastically improved. The new set of Pro Comp Mud Terrains hooked up and the truck ran like it was on rails, as the dust cleared so did the competitors, taking the Mac Attack to the finals. Sonny drove the Mac Attack, Sport Truck Specialties, BDS Suspension, Truxedo, Pro Comp Tires and Wheels truck into the winner's circle. Thanks for all the support, next on the schedule is Springfield, Missouri May 5th and 6th.

USHR Monster Jam Series

Racing in the USHRA Monster Jam Series was challenging at times, the weather conditions ranged from 70 degree temps with thunderstorms and tornados to ice storms with frigid temps and 12 inches of snow to top it off. Some of the fiercest competitors from across the nation were there. Three months, six races, and over 300,000 spectators at the sold out domes—the Mac Attack team had some great finishes.
