Looks like a couple of those guys are trying to run stock axle shafts. No way they will hold up to rigs of that size and weight with those tires and power.

Also some of these guys throw a build together last min and go compete in a rig they have Lil or no time in.....that's crazy to me.

Oh they are...I learned that real fast. I could break shafts just by pulling off the trailer lol

How much work would it take for the bouncers to get their engines water proofed enough to do this? Not sure I would do it just for that reason.

Well they changed the rules couple years back. Now you have to have a " full body" rig with a fire wall. It can be all tube chassis but has to have the body panels and a factory production firewall.

I did miss the not having anymore part.

Saw where the event in Hollister Hills is no more. I highly doubt they do away with the event, even if it is named different and in a different location.

True, I'm sure there are other "giant truck" competitions somewhere.

Re: Re: Anybody watching TopTruck Challenge?

They were supposed to run a buggy class too, but I guess that died a quick death.

It would be cool to move it around like UA. Most of the guys competing this yr are Canadian.

I think it's funny how he keeps saying that 47s are small tires but hasn't mentioned anything about the guy running 43SXs.

Re:

Is it me or is everyone breaking axles this year

The one that sticks out in my mind was the red TJ with the Viper V10 in it. Think it was only on like 38s, but that was a long time ago

This was one of those events I had always wanted to do since I was young.

On the plus side it will save me a ton of money lol.......assuming I had gotten picked.

SHELBS44 · Oct 14, 2015
