Top Truck '06

[jaymz77]

Anybody got any updates on how Top Truck Challenge is going? I've got a friend with a rig in the competition but haven't heard what's happening.

There is a 10 page or more writeup on Pirate.

Which rig is your friends?
BTW..the comp is already over.

Maybe we should pull together and do a group buy on the DVD when it comes out. They might give us a deal if a large number of us buy at the same time.
I notice other forums do that from time to time.

It was a 2002 Dodge with a cummins. Now it has rockwell 2 1/2 ton axles, four wheel/hydraulic steering, crazy suspension, leather seats w/ no doors, and last I heard 44" Mickey Thompsons but he might have changed for the competition. The truck weighs in at about 9k lbs., but still crawls almost anything. He's running the stock engine and transmission (as if they aren't strong enough) and I think an Atlas T-case.

Dan Dibble got third, and that four door TJ on 53's got first. Theres some sick carnage and pictures on the pirate thread. Its in the Gen4x4 section and is over 20 pages long I think

That TJ is fn huge..It past us entering rubicon on sunday with a few other jeeps and man it just made those of use on 36's and 38's look stock. I guess for probably the 50k ++ he's got into it it should be.

Pirate had lot's of sweet pics and stories. Thanks for the suggestion. I still wasn't able to find out how the blue Dodge finished. I guess that means he didn't do so hot? Can't wait for the results and pics to finally be posted in the magazine.
