I went to a local 4x4 event today called show and shine offroaders it primarly consisted of several jeeps and heavily modified samurai\'s then there was me and some guy with a stock zz1 4x4 truck and a crappy old ford http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif



I had fun did the teter toter you basicaly have to balance your truck for 70 seconds not an easy task but I did it.



Then theres the 4\" blocks you get one on each tire and have to hop the truck up on em very hard I hoped it twice and got it on the third try.



I also did the 30 Degree ramp with a wheel base of 131 I got 69 inches up the ramp before I got my rear tire off tjhe ground.. not the best mind you but next year Im going with no sway bar on.



My highlight of the evening was driving over two ford tarus station wagons lol all the big boys went doing not much I hopped up and flattened them lol my truck ways 2-4 times more then the others.



I def have a redneck tan now thow lol.



All in all a very enjoyable evening they even fixed one of my hubs for me because it was broken and wouldn\'t engage properly and they gave me a new one for free? I wish there was more people like this in the world lol.
