Has anybody on here done any hill&hole racing? If so how was it and how hard on parts? People down here are starting to ask about doing it, all I know it looks like fun, but hard on parts. I guess if your truck is set up right it would not be to rough!

Sandy,

The pit was 200 ft long and 40 feet wide. Good times for non-nos trucks were 8 seconds or so.

On Fathers day we ran the drags first then the bogs. We won drag classes 2,3 & 4. The drag track was dusty so the truck wasn't dirty, combined with wining 3 classes, I figured the crowd had seen enough of our yellow truck and the other drivers probably didn't want to see it anymore either so we parked it while it was still clean.

This Sat at the fair if the trucks already muddy from the drags, we'll be in there for sure!

Langford that is a pretty insane video. actually it's one I have saved already. Lots of really mean trucks. You had a great run going, What happened at the end? Looks like they cut your ending off?? Great runing truck though!


See you guys!

X2 I have never seen so many trucks destroyed in one place. The last local hill and hole claimed 80% of the entries.

it is rough on parts, my truck broke 2 limit straps, the tan blazer broke the center pin in the front leafs and caved in a fender, and the blue chevy broke off the t case and caved in the oil pan! oh and there was a black chevy on rockwells that broke a rear axle! but ti was a lot of fun! you got to pay if you want to play!
