no one posted a video of the krawlers spanking that hill (that started the lateral traction conversation) before the rollovers and carnage

never even had to back up and get a second bite, straight to the top :****:

on the right rig certain "street tires" spank those cut tsl's , those sticky iroks worked pretty good also

First off I am not say stickies don't work and I am not knocking Marks sami at all as he did SPANK it. He hit it first, and had stickies which work well with his rig. However, within two to three vehicles after Mark that hill changed DRAMATICALLY. By that point there was not really any lateral traction for any of the rigs. Anyone that was within 20 up to 50 feet of that top section was getting hit with mud,dirt and rocks from the vehicles with cut tires. The amount of dirt and rock those tires were throwing was incredible. I was there the whole time and from Mark until after Bryan COle made it at the end of the day. It ws obvious that those running the cut tires qucikly changed the climb... Bryan had stickies and made it up the bottom section without backing up. Yet, even with the stickies he spent a good deal of time and a lot of effort to get up the very top. It would be interesting to see how the same vehicle that spanked it in the beginning would have faired had he hit it after 3-4 of the other rigs had been on it.
The yellow Aetna buggy owned the top section once he got up the bottom even though the top was already changed. He had those big cut turf tires..Regardliess, it was one impressive show.

I would love to, but I just bought a house so I can't just buy random toys anymore.

You do that and you will see a bunch of grown men come to tears. I was there and what I saw was UNBELIEVABLE. Forwards/ backwards in a downpour, no doubt about it Cole, your rig is sick... :****:

I can appreciate the house ordeal, but don't sell your rig man...

We went to WE Rock in dayton last summer and was amazed what the bfgs and maxxis did. They climbed like hell with it pouring down rain, they was climbing things that most rigs wouldnt do dry.I think if many people went and watched rigs like that go they would rethink whats being built and wheeled around here.Not as entertaining as someone burning 500 dollars worth of tires on every hill but they proved that you don't have to.

I broke my main belt the first time i mashed the throttle that day. It would have taken me two days to get out without the help i got. Thanks to all that helped. Mainly JR, Gus, Tom, and especially Chris Smith's crew (junktrader). You can't beat good ole southern hospitality!

I was standing beside Gus when the Taylor took a hard right and tried to climb the tree we were hiding behind. I did stay in there and get the footage on my phone. Couldn't edit it with my softwere for some reason so it is a little long. The near miss is about 3/4 of the way through the video. Here it is!
