FULL BIO: Cynthia Gauthier
This Quebec native turned her motocross scars into monster truck glory, proving that sometimes the best detours lead to the biggest stages.
EARLY YEARS
Born June 25, 1988, in Mirabel, Quebec, Cynthia Gauthier had racing “in her genes” according to early media coverage, though the specifics of her family’s motorsports connections remain private. She dove headfirst into motocross racing, competing at the Canadian national women’s division level for six years. But like many racers before her, injuries would eventually force a career pivot that would prove to be a blessing in disguise.
OTHER INTERESTS
Details about Gauthier’s interests outside of motorsports remain largely private, with her public persona focused entirely on her racing career and the technical demands of monster truck competition.
EARLY SUCCESS
When motocross injuries forced her off two wheels, Cynthia didn’t sulk—she adapted. She transitioned to off-road racing, piloting a 1600cc race buggy powered by a modest Volkswagen Bug engine. This wasn’t just a consolation prize; it was strategic skill-building. The buggy racing kept her reflexes sharp and her competitive edge honed while she pursued her ultimate goal: driving monster trucks. “I loved racing and was pretty good at it,” she reflected on her motocross days, but her sights were already set on something bigger—literally.
NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS
- 2015: Debuted as rookie driver in Monster Jam circuit with Monster Mutt Dalmatian[1].
- 2015-Present: Continues competing in Canadian Pro Women’s Tour in off-road buggies[2].
- Recent: Added Lucas Stabilizer monster truck to her driving repertoire[2].
INSPIRATIONS
While Gauthier keeps her personal influences close to the vest, her career trajectory suggests she’s inspired by resilience and adaptation rather than any single role model. Her ability to pivot from motocross to monster trucks shows someone who views setbacks as setup for comebacks.
REPUTATION
In the Monster Jam circuit, Cynthia has earned respect as a serious and athletic driver who brings legitimate racing credentials to the arena. Her Monster Mutt Dalmatian truck—with its distinctive dog-themed bodywork—has become a fan favorite, particularly with younger audiences. She’s recognized as one of the few female drivers excelling in the male-dominated monster truck world, contributing significantly to the visibility of women in motorsports. Media coverage consistently portrays her as a competent competitor who transferred her motocross and off-road racing skills seamlessly to handling 1,500+ horsepower monster trucks.
FUTURE GOALS/PLANS
Currently residing in New York and continuing to compete with both Monster Mutt Dalmatian and Lucas Stabilizer, Gauthier’s specific 2025 goals remain undisclosed. However, her continued participation in off-road buggy racing suggests she’s maintaining her diverse skill set while pursuing whatever monster truck opportunities lie ahead.
