Firestarter is a 1/3 scale exhibition monster truck conceived and completed in 2008 by Firestarter Racing of Essex County, Ontario.[1]

The vehicle, the body of which is based on the actual firefighting pumpers manufactured by Seagrave Fire Apparatus in the 1930s, possesses all the characteristics of a full-scale monster truck. Specifications include a 3.0 V6 engine, rear steering, Knight Stalker nitrogen shocks, a dual chain drive and 35" Super Swamper tires. Engineer Steve Combs of KS Enterprises, Inc. who initially developed the nitrogen charged shock, was instrumental as a consultant in the suspension setup. Steve currently calibrates and makes shocks for such major monster trucks as Grave Digger.

Firestarter made its public debut on January 17, 2009, at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan. Driven for major motorsports promoter Feld Entertainment, Firestarter appeared at Monster Jam and was recorded for broadcast by Speed Channel. In addition, Firestarter completed several summer dates driving for Chris Arel Motorsports and the Monster Spectacular in both 2009 and 2010, and is currently driving with Monster Jam with bookings running into 2012.
