February 8, 200719 yr so i have found out that there are mud drags in our area,along with "tuff truck" type of stuff going on in different areas of eastern washington and northern idaho. my goal this year is to try and make it to these events and do as much damage as possible. because with out damage, there is no mechanical advancement. i will add more info as i get it hopefully.as long as i remember to look at this.

February 10, 200719 yr Our local county fair use to have the tough truck competition, was always fun to watch. About seven years or so ago I was absolutely astounded to see of all things a completely stock ea81 gl hatch in it. After a few rounds and knocking out his grill, one headlight bezel, and jarring loose his hatch latch the guy one the competition. I found out afterward that he had swapped an ea81t with some upgrades into it. Thats probably the only memory worth sharing from my fair days hehe....
February 12, 200719 yr there was that brat that was built for tuff truck that was for sale on here, I think he was out of PA? site was cool and had lots of vids. propane would be cool, the ultimate fuel for boosted cars pretty much. 105-110 octane, cheap-ish, some cooling effect, etc. what mixer and reg are you going to run? blow through? you could run a small bottle to save weight/space since those arent exactly long distance events. like the size of the torch ones lol. got anything planned for the suspension? cough a-arms cough
February 14, 200719 yr Author funny , i was thinkin the same thing. cool, yotas or what? for tuff truck a truss might come in handy...
