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, 04:38 PM

ok, it worked now. that is a pretty bad ass rig!

big giant head · 01-25-2009, 04:47 PM

Looked like he was holding better with the brakes on, didnt seem to do much but make noise at WOT

gotcha. it seemed like they were kinda just show boating

ffdustyw · 01-25-2009, 06:04 PM

Damn getting those tires moving like that is impressive. I need to build a Blown 440 big block.

bossman79 · 01-25-2009, 06:49 PM

that truck looks familar, i think someone posted it the gen4x4 awhile back playing in the mud.

BOGGER1966 · 01-25-2009, 08:03 PM

yeah, its been on here a few times...

Nitrofueled14 · 01-26-2009, 11:05 AM

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

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.
