im going to run it, dont plan on gettin too far, but so far the foot to the floor method hasn't failed me yet. stock height, open diffs, and 32" BFG all terrains, but it has gone though 16" of snow with out a problem.

Thats a nice looking truck you got in your gallery. How far have you gotten along with your planned build up?


Never been mudding here. . .ok, does an R/C truck tearing through a baseball diamond after some rain count?

Front Royal is where 81 meets 66. Probably a 4 hour drive from Hampton Roads, taking 64 west to 81 north. It's about an hour for me; if I still have the Mazda, it sounds like fun.

any of yall make it? it was a hell of a day. got my *** handed to me buy a chebby with a built 400 but then drug my friends chebby clear across the field. only got about 20-25ft in the mud at most then started doin 5grand neutral drops between drive and reverse needless to say my tranny didnt like that it was slippin like hell in drive for about a mile then something grabbed and she was fine. i also managed to blow out the doughnut gasket doin the neutral drops so it was a LOUD ride home and a very slow one avoiding all the cops.

Couldn't make it, but I think it was obvious I wasn't going to be able to run on up there Man, just how deep was the mud?

look for your self http://619march18.tripod.com/id1.html , my truck is the green one with the confederate flag, the 1st one is me pulling (or getting pulled) and the 2nd one is where i got stopped in the mud. that wasnt the deepest part. it was a good 3.5 ft deep at the deepest part. i got a video of me getting my *** handed to me by that chebby with the built 400 http://www.supermotors.org/vehicles/...5905&objtype=2 the person that was running the camera for me was with me when i put that black chebby to shame so i dont have a video of it my dad has pictures that need to be devolped though. and the picture of the truck in the mud next to the picture of me hooking up to the orange chebby is the one in this video http://www.supermotors.org/vehicles/....php?id=325909 and this one http://www.supermotors.org/vehicles/....php?id=325909 and i got about 5 feet farther than he did.
