Monster Energy Free Gear Tab Promotion 2012

Posted on April 22, 2012 by Jared Guynes

Hello Everyone,

I would just like to report some information that I have been given in regards to the re-start of the 2012 Monster Energy Free Gear Tab Promotion for 2012. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. Also be aware, I do not receive your orders, see your orders, or have access to your order information. Sorry about that.

The 2012 Monster Energy Free Gear Tab Promotion will begin on May 1st 2012.

  • The URL for the promotion is https://gear.monsterenergy.com/index.php/
  • Monster is STILL working on fulfilling some orders from the 2011 Tab Promotion, many have been waiting since late 2011 to get their stuff shipped due to the popular demand.
  • The tabs you can send in do NOT have to have the M-Claw logo on them, but they CANNOT be the stickers from a Monster-Import, or the lids from a BFC or Ubermonster. Just tabs. So, once again, that is the TAB on Original, Low-Carb, Rehab, Assault, etc etc etc. Even Monster-Java tabs work.
  • The promotion is only for the USA.
  • The promotion size selections will likely not include sizes over 2X, and might not even have 2x at all (we will not know until May 1st).

NEW – Get free Monster Energy gear with your Drink Tabs! – 2012

Posted on April 3, 2012 by Jared Guynes

The #1 question I get asked on facebook, email and this blog is “When is the Tab Promotion coming back?”. Everyone got so excited when Monster Energy rolled out their extremely popular “Tab Promotion” back in 2011, giving away shirts, hoodies and hats in exchange for Monster Energy Can Tabs. I blogged about it on this page, and it ended up being a post so popular it got over 250 comments. Yeah…

The old graphic from the 2011 monster tab promotion...

So anyways, what you care about is: WHEN WILL IT COME BACK? Well, what I can tell you direct from Monster Energy corporate offices (which I do NOT work at by the way) is that the promotion for 2012 is slated to launch in May. I am not sure what the LINK will be to go to the store to see what prizes you can get for your tabs, but I have a feeling that it will be http://gear.monsterenergy.com/

I have heard that for 2012, the tab promotion gear will be EXPANDED beyond shirts, hoodies and hats, and will have things like backpacks, lanyards, stickers and perhaps even a bike! None of this can be confirmed until the new promotion launches.

So thats what I got for now, May 2012. Save your tabs, (and your shipping and handling money) and of course keep up with me and the Monster Camaro on facebook for up to the minute updates. I will post as SOON as the new promo goes live. Thanks!

Monster Camaro – 2012 Dyno Video

Posted on March 28, 2012 by Jared Guynes

Real Quick: In January 2012, I did some fun donuts for a youtube video which more or less blew my motor. We were able to determine that the cam was too large, the pistons had not been flycut, and as a result my pistons, valves, and springs were trashed.

After what I thought was “for sure” LS3/Procharger Sponsorship, the deal fell through, and I was stuck on my own dime to get the camaro back on the road. I dont believe in Credit Cards, so my cash on hand dictated my choices. We ended up finding a low mileage LS1 to replace my 205,000 mile block, and rebuilt the engine with the old heads/cam/exhaust, while doing some minor upgrades like porting the oil pump, new springs, new pushrods and rockers and all new gaskets. Basically got the whole car fresh again.

My car is not setup for big power, so I am not surprised at my somewhat average/modest numbers. Thats fine with me. I am just happy to have my car back, and to have dealt with the professionals at TSM, whom were nothing but accommodating and amazing.

Enjoy the video.

Brake Pad and Rotor Bed-In Theory, Definitions and Procedures Removing the Mystery from Brake Pad Bed-In

Posted on March 8, 2012 by Jared Guynes

Pad and Rotor Bed-In Theory, Definitions and Procedures
Removing the Mystery from Brake Pad Bed-In

by Matt Weiss of StopTech and James Walker, Jr. of scR motorsports

In order for any brake system to work optimally, the rotors and pads must be properly bedded-in, period. This process can also be called break-in, conditioning, or burnishing, but whatever terminology you choose, getting the brakes properly bedded-in and keeping them that way is critical to the peak performance of the entire brake system.

However, understanding why the rotors and pads need to be bedded-in is just as important as the actual process. If one understands what is happening during the bed-in process, they can tailor the process to specific pads, rotors, and/or driving conditions. For this reason, we present this generic bed-in overview pertaining to all brake systems, but follow with links to application-specific bed-in procedures to fit most every set of circumstances.

Win a set of Skullcandy Smokin’ Buds from the Monster Camaro!

Posted on March 4, 2012 by Jared Guynes

Hello Monster Camaro fans!

I just got hooked up with 2 badass sets of headphones from my friends at Skullcandy, and I am giving them away to my fans! Each of these Monster Green Smokin’ Buds earphones sets feature 9mm drivers, a mic for use with a smart phone, and even a play/pause button! Of course I am going to hook you up with some sweet Monster Energy stickers too!

SO HOW DO  YOU WIN?

Make a sign that says “The Monster Camaro Rocks!” and take a picture of yourself holding it WHILE ALSO wearing some sort of Monster Energy gear. Does not matter what gear it is, in fact it can even be a can of monster in the background (or be creative!). You dont have to get fancy with your sign, but you might get bonus points for doing that!

Take the picture or get a friend to help you do it, and POST it on the official Monster Camaro facebook wall at http://www.facebook.com/monstercamaro . That’s it! I am going to run this contest for a WEEK so you have 7 days, or until March 11th 2012 at midnight to get your pics posted! I will be picking TWO winners this time, completely randomly from the pictures that are posted. You may only enter once per person.

So lets review for those of you who need it spelled out.

1. You want to win some sweet Skullcandy headphones and Monster Stickers.
2. You make a sign with some markers and some printer paper saying “THE MONSTER CAMARO ROCKS!!!!”
3. You hold up the sign, put on your monster shirt/hat/hoodie/whatever, and take a pic.
4. You post the pic on the Monster Camaro facebook wall at http://www.facebook.com/monstercamaro

Got it? Good luck!

If you really wanna help, make sure to SUGGEST the Monster Camaro to your friends!

-Jared
