Snake Bite was created in 1991 by Bigfoot 4x4, Inc. It competed
on the PENDA points series from 1991 to 1994. Now Snake Bite is used
for non-points series competiton, as well as the "Safarifoot" rides.
Snakebite is one of several aternative names for Bigfoot Monster
Truck. Among these alterative names have been "Summit
Bigfoot", "Power Wheels Bigfoot", "Tonka", "Xbox", "WildFoot" and
"Snake Bite".
Snake Bite (using Bigfoot 4's chassis) was originally driven by
Gene Patterson, under the pseudonym of Colt Cobra. He wore a mask to
hide his identity and came from the fictional town of Cobra Creek,
Colorado. Eric Meagher became Colt Cobra in 1993 (now with Bigfoot
8's chassis) when Gene drove Bigfoot #10 to second place behind Andy
Brass in Bigfoot #11. Dan Runte drove it as Ricky Rattler for a
short time, but Ricky also came from Cobra Creek, Colorado. Since
1997, a regular Bigfoot driver under his own name has been driving
Snake Bite. |

Twisted Willys
As we watched this beast crawl up the RTI Ramp, observed the pivot point just behind the cab of the
truck as it worked it's extra flex into a great score for a 118 inch wheelbase
vehicle, we knew we would have to do
a page on
this beast.
