2021 started out with a mud-slinging bang at Alabama Mud Park’s XBR Bounty Hole Competition where a grand total of $20,021 was awarded to the winners.
This competition attracted over 2,300 people from all over the country on Jan. 30. The massive audience fueled the event’s energy, and the mud riders’ adrenaline as they plunged through the manmade mudhole.
This “bounty hole” was a new design made specially for this event by Lamont McCray with XBR (Extreme Bounty Racing) from Enterprise. They specifically designed the hole to have several twists and turns for those thrill-seekers brave enough to jump in and get stuck.
“Hotels were booked, restaurants filled. The city of Troy was packed out from this event we had,” said Diana Colquett, owner of Alabama Mudpark. “I loved that it supported the community.”
Saturday night, Frank Fletcher and his band from Enterprise, owned the stage and entertained listeners with some country tunes.
“This was just a way to bring the community together and spend time together and bring families together,” said Colquett. “I love the revenue it brought to the whole town of Troy.”
There were three winners per class:
Big Tire SXS Class
1st Jason Melinda Gipson $4,507.00
2nd Brandon Root $2,000.00
3rd Matt Julian $1,500.00
Big Tire ATV Class
1st Jace Gipson $4,507.00
2nd Danny Bo Brian $2,000.00

2nd Brain Baxley $1,000.00
3rd Bradley Striplin $500.00
There was even a sound competition sponsored by Area 51 Customs. A huge number of the ATVs, SXSs, Polaris, Rangers, etc. competed to see whose sound system was the loudest.

1-4 Speakers Class Derek Peloquin
5-8 Speakers Class Marshall Mims
