Outer Limits 4x4 Board

WOW...It is GREAT to hear all of the people being excited about this event! The vehicles, teams, courses, and W.E.ROCK Australia are all looking VERY professional these days!

Congratulations Sam.

And a big congratulations to the teams and people who have helped make the event what it was!

Sure was great competing with and wheeling with you guys! FYI, the Blue Red Bull RockIt was really the RockHer 1 in it's new paintjob. The RockHer 1 will be the RockIt for now as I have sold my rear engined buggy to a guy in Russia. So, the crawler Tony was driving is actually the RockHer 1 in ...

It was pretty off-the-hook and we were well taken care of including a private seating area right on the edge of the top of the RIO with the best view in Vegas, looking out over the strip and looking straight up the skirts of the Go Go dancers :P That particular area rents out for $1100 per night ...

Holy bejeez-us, there's a load of you guys comin over... Alright, first off, so I don't hurt anyone's feelings I'll be straight...Sam and Tony are first in line for obvious reasons...even though Tony is a lightweight... For the rest, it'll work like this...Drivers / spotters / and event volunteers ...

Club VooDoo, the best club in Vegas, has invited us to come and party on Thursday, Nov. 2. The club owner is a personal friend and said he would be planning a bikini contest, a special DJ out of New York, and some local talent for a little roving entertainment around what is a totally kickass indoor ...

[quickly searching for BULL$HIT emoticon!!!] Uhhh...yeahhh... [/quickly searching for BULL$HIT emoticon!!!]

When will you all be here? I have a club that is kickass here in Vegas and though it's normally $50 a head, a coupla times I've gotten everyone in for free as long as we tip the waitress real good. I'll try to arrange something in advance if possible but I need to know what night. The club is called ...

I cant wait its going to be such fun hope we can give those Yanks a run for there money,better yet i hope we all hand it to them :D The only thing you're gong to be handing is your entry fees...we've got a secret weapon that you all can't resist...it's called BEER. we've imported some that actually ...

Rear burn can load the crawler in funny ways so that explains more of that. I was wondering how in the world you ended up in that position and it is always fun to figure out what happened as often enough you find little changes to the car or driving technique that can make the team perform even ...

It just dawned on me what it might be...money says it is the short panhard from the rear pulling the front up...look at the right right front tyre. It is flat into the sidewall and the right rear shock is already collapsed. In turn, the only thing left free to pull is the left front tire. A longer ...

We didn't run shot in our tires in Aus. A LITTLE water, but really nothing as with the 20's and the Staun's, there was only a few pounds when it was all said and done. Sam told me there were about 15cm of H2o. That suspension in the front still settled very well which was unexpected without our ...

PunkBus and Shane...nice pics! I loved this shot of Bec: http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/PHP_Modules/phpBB2/files/thumbs/t_dscf0677__medium__105.jpg Wondering if I can get a high res version??? Hey Daisy...look at this pic and tell me something: http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/PHP_Modules/phpBB2/files ...

i agree with everything you said, shame it's coming from someone who relies on his wife to make him look good :D :D :D I surround myself with people that make me look good. Think about that same exact comment relating DIRECTLY to this thread... If the Aussies surround themselves with an already ...

So after reading this thread i'm thinking that you guys are trying to suggest that because Werock was here first that everyone else should follow? I may be wrong, if i am feel free to delete this post, but it seems as if this thread is aimed toward the beginnings of Ozrock. The points raied are ...

The real question is...


Is it more fun to drive with different size tyres on the front or on the back???












Hey, I misspelled tires.

I guess before I say any more, I should ask this question...how is CCDA and OzRock working with WE Rock? I know that the CCDA and Det were there at Milbrodale and Det seemed to be a professional and concerned guy trying to make sure everything fell into place with their side of the event. Lil Rich ...

AND...something very important. If you are going to grow your event beyond a once a year fun thing with classes designed for a certain region with only a few rigs, by all means, make the classes to fit the vehicles that will attend. HOWEVER, if you are planning on playing with the big boys and ...

The point that Dustin is making is a good one...but not achieveable IMHO. There will be disagreements over rules/specs/managing of events...whatever, and this will result in the formation of a multitude of bodies in the future. There's where the beauty of sanctioning comes in. The events can still ...

The way the corses are set, points and scoring, all the same as we/cal/oz/U/R/Neu/pro rock

They are NOT the same...each has it's own way of doing it and it really has become confusing...for the media, teams, and fans.

For trail/street/rock combo... Pro Comp X-Terrain.

If it's mud only, then don't look at me for an answer as I HATE mud.

so basically, are you saying have 1 set of rules, 1 "body" (i.e. werock), then under that umbrella run multiple series (like the nsw and queensland werock series, and ozrock) Yes...and I realise it already is that to an extent but soon there will be a growth spurt that brings in new opinions and ...

The post is about RockCrawling. Coming to compete in Australia, it was clear that your teams have learned very quickly how to drive and build crawlers. We were pleasantly surprised to see that you all have progressed in 2 years, to a level that took us 5 years to get to. Truly, with another year ...

Congrats Pip and ABT...looks like you had a spectacular comp!

Nice pics in this thread too. Sure makes me wish I was there!

Jess...good idea.

Good link bogged. Snarba - You can start an auto in drive (or any gear by simply bypass what is called (over here anyway) the neutral safety switch circuit that is a switch on the transmission that detects if the auto is in park or neutral or not. If it is in any other gear, the switch goes into "no ...

And to show you OUR stickey compound...here's a shot of it right off my crawler just a few minutes ago. http://www.procliffdiving.com/Grafix/xtread.jpg Tell me who's compound that is??? Have you actually seen a compound do that? Mickey?..NOPE...BFG?...NOPE, GoodYear?...NOPE, TOYO?....NOPE, MAxxis ...

Pro Comp Tires is its own company...seperate from ANY other Pro Comp parts you see like suspension, tow straps and such, so don't confuse the two "Pro Comp" brands...Yes, the two companies are owned by the same family but they are nothing alike as they are seperatly run by two completely different ...

That may be true, but Down Under we use TYRES!



Scott

and drive with your eyes closed...Ask lil Tom...isn't that right Daisy???

Are you SURE he's not running BFG's...those debead right and left in competition...RIGHT and LEFT.

If not, he's got to running a junk steel rim (probably undersize, the kind they use in implements) without much, if any, lip on the inner bead. NO TIRE has a better bead than ProComp...NO TIRE!

For rock, sand, dirt, and street, the X-Terrains are the best all-around tire out there...their performance in rockcrawling and now their overtaking of desert racing is a true testimonial to how good the tires really are...that's right...Pro Comp is changing the faces of speed sports like desert ...
