[to_easy]

yeah i know what u mean, just means u have to work a bit faster

[Tuff Events]

Competitors and spectators what do you think of these 2 new TT rules???

1. Rear steer is a 3 point penalty for each use
2. Travel ramp wheel base has to be measured at the vehicles lowest setting.

i think they are pretty fair. in particularly the travel ramp one?

the fairest way of mesuring the travel ramp is to measure the wheel base from the centre of the front left tyre to the centre of the rear right tyre. this factors the width into the score. the wider trucks have more advantage over the narrower trucks

Chad

Put that to them for next year & see what happens, but you are dead right the width is also part of the equation

I think you should have a bigger ramp & drive it till you roll, with a safety strap once it decides to fall it will be saved by officials or other team members..

They would have to get every official / everyones Team members / and all the spectators to catch yours ...Pete .....Thats if it would fall over.......But faWK it cant keep defying gravity .....or have you been talking with bentzook

TTC number 1 though, there was a few (heaps) of donuts at night in one area. i still wonder how those cars up there got out? it looked like a war zone, but it was a good night.

just had a look at who's enter in this year's tuff truck competition and Matt Pisani from M&M Custom Engineering has no enter whats the go is he not going to enter in this year's tuff truck competition????

he one of the top hardcore 4x4 comp guys around

He was going to drive Shane's old Jeep the Firetruck for ABT i believe, but Sean may not have got entry in time, or maybe it won't be finished in time, not sure.

just had a look at the web site he is competitor 41

lets see him stand the jeep on it's front

with only 40 vehicles going hope someone puts a vote or two in. i already sent mine off and it wouls sux for him not to be there. Great driver/nav/vehicle combo this one.

Vote 1 gonads

[DIRTY ROCK STAR]

Dude he could vote for himself??
I think this is where the voting system shows its benefit. and possibly shows who really wants to compete and whos thinking, well if i dont have anything better to do i might as well go there??

But its getting closer and im stoked!!!!!! good times ahead..

[PKiel]

I was just wandering if when your husband is competing do we need to pre order tickets for myself and our Navi's wife?? Or are they in the entry package. As this is our first time as competitors we are not sure.

I no this may be a silly question but I would prefer to know now rather than when we arrive at the gate...

Thanks heaps
