Tough Dog Tuff Truck Challenge 2009

[Tuff Events]

Question for antunac, hope u got the rest of ur truck back after rolling just one wheel past us late on sunday arvo. In regards to the travel ramp, if you lift the front left off the ground is that then your finishing point? Because it didnt look like you had much left in "track" to keep all wheels on the ground!
This may sound stupid but did you (pete) win the travel ramp with the new scoring system? Would have love to see Noble up there (think he was due for it on sunday morning???) compared to you.

PAUL

From my calculations, it would have been ahead of Phils.
http://offroadimages.com.au/4x4events20 ... 26&pos=202
If u check out phils front tyre on the ramp from previous years, you'll notice the edge of the the rim is approximately in line with the Y shaped brace.
In the video, the centre of my axle is in a similiar position with the brace & I have a shorter wheelbase by 4-6"..
I need to see a side on shot of mine to be sure.

I think that an angle gauge on the front axle for all vehicles would be a more accurate measurement indication, that way no-one is advantaged or disadvantaged by wheelbase or wheeltrack.

As for running out of wheeltrack, when u drive a little further up the ramp past 90 degrees, the lower tyre swings & gets taller, so it would help.
But the ramp needs a few mods to allow this so the lower front tyre doesn't foul the ramp framework.

Point taken. . . . . . Im still wondering how the fridge got over the Mini Wiraba ridge Mate that was awesome seeing the old girl get up! Thanks for the kind words, we really appreciate it.

[Tuff Events]

I'd like to take the chance to give a huge thanks to the entire Tuff Tuck Commitee.
Thay have done a fantastic job this year & I'm sure have produced a record crowd. There were people everywhere.

Without guys like Greg Page & his crew this event would not have been possible. Thanks Greg & the crew. Your dedication has proved to be a huge success in my book.

Also a massive thanks to Tony & Steve Price. You will not meet two nicer guys. I'm sure that every competitor will agree that both of these guys worked incredibly hard to please every competitor upto & during the event. Hats off to both of you!! Awesome job & much appreciated efforts.

Regards
Pete Antunac

They weren't legs that you saw poking out from the bottom of his dress, Dave.
