    I wish I was out in the desert weekend.

    I drove that part on Halloween weekend. There are some really smooth and fast parts just after and before that section. I couldnt handle the whoops right there anything like the truck can, but your truck costs way more then my jeep does.

    I need to get some footage of my Jeep hitting it. All I have are pictures of it sitting still. Lame... Maybe Ill borrow my friends camera for Thanksgiving.


    Just for reference compared to my Jeep. Do you know what kind of gas millage that thing gets.

    Ran out of talent LOL.... it happens to the best of us. Truck gets after it pretty well. Does it have a swaybar? Those headers look very nice also.Nice build. Get it back together and come race Battle at Primm or Laughlin in the prerunner class. You should shake it down at Barstow next time if he really wants to shake .

    not a penny, the owner is buying another cab from junkyard and i am going to replace it.. to run in class 1400 sportman expert you have to have two doors!! no fiberglass cab.. although we do have fiberglass fender, and one peice hood.. just dont use them for test driving.

    we are going to race next month barstow.. and this weekend to prerun the baja 1000 corse.

    are you sure? well I was told by Jerry that hes gonna do 1450 because last time we raced (MDR wild wash 200 night race) there was only one other 1400.. and it was too boring to race by himself kinda. And of course we have sway bar in the rear, you didnt see it?

    I saw the swaybar in the 2nd video. Yes I am sure. I race in the class regularly in MDR either with my friend Jono in his Tundra or my friend Tylers Ranger. The last MDR race of the season was last weekend so if you planning on racing MORE then yeah the entries will be sparce in the truck class as all the fast trucks race MDR. There were 6+ 1400 entries last race and all of them very fast trucks. MORE races wont be worth your time in a truck as the promoter caters to buggies and you will have lap traffic all day from 9 cars and slow 16's. Take it to Laughlin and run the SNORE 1450 race next month $2500 for first place. Skin the roof throw some new doors on and you'll be good. Is this Jerry you speak of the guy who had the HnM F150 he rolled at barstow?

    Yes Jerry Larimore, the same owner that had f150, and now fiberwerx owns that trophy truck. After it rolled, i cut the whole cab out and redid the rest front with Buff Herman, turned it into a real trophy truck that still has orgional f150 chassis frame under lol!! number 50 Jason from Fiberwerx has it.

    Awesome video. The biggest tragedy is the 65 gallons of race fuel on the dirt. Screw the environment; that's good money spilling out.

    I never finished my Ranger for that exact reason. I didn't have the balls, err wallet, to run it and likely roll it.

    i love offroad trucks! theyre alot of fun!
    I cant imagine what it would be like to roll a vehicle though. im assuming lots of G forces?
    like the video where travis pastrana's hand flies out the window a few times from the G's

    Well I am not big fan of FORDs, but theyre good to beat up though! haha.. im a Chevy/GMC guy.

    Todays test run was mellow because we all were sick.. although there was class 8 team with Jason from Fiberwerx.. Jason went for ride in the truck I build is really impressed with it, he said if we put in a v-6 motor build at 500 hp plus, it would have washed SCORE class 6 and win $8k each races if we get first. Then the guy who owns or co owns the race truck they were tuning rode in it later, he was shocked as well.. its one fast ranger.. 85mph in plaster city whoops.. yeah!
