Nicole Johnson: Home-made Badass

Nicole Johnson is a badass in so many ways. She was the first female to land a backflip in competition IN A MONSTER TRUCK. She was the first woman to cross the finish line at King of Hammers; 2x Rockcrawling Champion; competed in short course off-road racing; holds the title for most racing wins by a Rookie in a single season of Monster Jam.

Nicole educates us on how to stay off your roof; the crazy but-strangely-familiar technology is off-road brakes; how to backflip a monster truck; why the seat isn't comfortable; the unexpected difficulty driving a certain automatic transmission, and more!

Now she's got a YouTube show called "Nicole Johnson's Detour' where she drives everything from rare classics, fast Datsuns, a V12 cab-over truck, ultra-wide MGs, 1200HP VW Beetles, and Magnus Walker's 911s.
