Amazing 85 GL in tough truck competition


Recommended Posts

Yeah I've seen that before. I like how the commentator says "And now he will have to exit the vehicle so it can be towed" but he just drives off. haha.

 

That thing probably had a cage cage built in for the sole purpose of holding it together because you can see STRAIGHT through the rear wheel wells when looking from the side.

I saw a EA82 Sedan at a monster truck show, musta been about 2000 or earlier, it was hilarious cuz this car was doing things even the tuff trucks wouldnt do, and it was stock! The funniest part though, was when they announced it was a Subaru, it was pretty quiet in the stands and all you could hear was this one guy yell at the top of his voice WHOOOOOOOOO SUBARUUUUU!!! :lol: I got a kick outa that

Man! Broke that rear drive shaft twice... I liked how he pulled him self off the track :lol:

 

I think the second runs, after the wheel fell off the first time, I think he only had 2wd. I don't think he he had an axle on the rear.

Yeah could be, I don't think they'd tae the time to put another axle on.. He was having tranny issues too..

 

I think whatever hack weld-up they did for the rear suspension probably changed the geometry to the point where the rear axles would not work.
