ABOUT HALL BROTHERS RACING (HBR)
Hall Brothers Racing, founded in 1986 by brothers Tim and Mark Hall, is one of the few monster
truck teams that fabricates almost everything in-house. HBR designs and builds all of their own
chassis, builds their own engines, performs their own body and paint work, and performs all of
their own repairs, all in-house. Their drivers are skilled mechanics who are experts on the
mechanical workings of their trucks and they also help drive the semis that transport the trucks
up and down the road. Crew Chief Tim Hall is an expert engine builder and he directs and
oversees the daily business operations.
HBR has been sponsored by RAM Trucks since 2002 and Hotsy Pressure Washers for several
years. Both Mark Hall and Tim Hall were inducted into the International Monster Truck Hall of
Fame in 2021
When they aren’t at the races or working in the shop, you can find HBR’s trucks and drivers
making appearances at RAM Truck Dealerships and RAM-sponsored events all over the country
including the National Finals Rodeo, the NFL SuperBowl, the College Football Championship
Game, Farm shows, NHRA Drag Racing and NASCAR events, and others.
