WCW Nitro was a monster truck that raced on the USHRA circuit. It was a transferred body from the original Grave Digger 3 and was driven variously by different drivers. The truck has gone to one World Finals and was driven by former Excaliber and current Grave Digger driver Charlie Pauken. The truck was then made into Inferno in 2002 and carried that name for the next 6 years. The truck is now discontinued because the body had extensive swaying. The truck ran from 2000 to 2001 as Nitro, 2001 to 2002 as Flashfire, and 2002 to 2008 as Inferno. The drivers that have driven the truck are Chad Fortune, Charlie Pauken, Cliff Thomas, Joe Payne, and John Seasock.
