abig84 01-25-2009, 05:36 PM man i wouldnt stand that close to those things lol. also wouldnt slicks be better for a tug of war instead of those tractor tires that have like 2inches of rubber on the pavement.
pretty cool trucks though
cslimfu 01-25-2009, 05:38 PM ok, it worked now. that is a pretty bad ass rig!
big giant head 01-25-2009, 05:47 PM Looked like he was holding better with the brakes on, didnt seem to do much but make noise at WOT

i didn't stand there long......i was right on the fence his exhaust put me in tears......
this wasn't a competition.....it was all just for fun

def. not the point
big giant head 01-25-2009, 05:58 PM def. not the point
Haha, It was cool don't get me wrong, but you can tell what it is built for
abig84 01-25-2009, 06:12 PM this wasn't a competition.....it was all just for fun
gotcha. it seemed like they were kinda just show boating
ffdustyw 01-25-2009, 07:04 PM Damn getting those tires moving like that is impressive. I need to build a Blown 440 big block.
bossman79 01-25-2009, 07:49 PM that truck looks familar, i think someone posted it the gen4x4 awhile back playing in the mud.
BOGGER1966 01-25-2009, 09:03 PM yeah, its been on here a few times...
Nitrofueled14 01-26-2009, 12:05 PM I agree with the wrong tires on those things. I've seen the TGW videos and there are a lot of trucks using mud tires for that. There must be some secret to that because a lot of them use those kinds of tires.

Because the wide slicks on grippy shit break A LOT of stuff.

Been that close before! If you ever get the chance to go to Jesse Blacks for TGW event: DO IT! Literally, I cannot believe that happens in downtown Orlando and it is still legal! One of the best nights I ever had. WILD!
The most dangerous thing I saw there was people not paying attention (mostly event staff), when a 10ft truck(which can't see behind him) started to reverse some people almost got run over, a couple times
abig84--Next time I go, I'll drag my junk down. Midwest representin':smokin:
Here's a pic of Matt Steele and Mud Tank Lite

bigreen 01-29-2009, 07:26 AM We were there too. I was very disappointed though. We got there around 10:30, stayed till 2 and only saw 3 tugs. The event is just ran horribly.

Bubba's mud ranch in auburndale runs a good show also

Jesse Blacks. The link you had didnt work for me, I just assumed you were talking about Jesse Blacks with the TGW/Friday/Tugs reference.
