I have never not been able to run 4wd... There is ALWAYS a class...

most of the time there is enough to have a 4wd only class, but if not I guarantee the you will have PLENTY of competition from the 2wds...

Ok thanks. Yeah I know the guys running 2wd are gonna be dialed and since I haven't raced off road in 10 years getting a truck might be the easiest to jump into for the once a month racer....

Default Same as before

The track has not been redone as of Monday night. Very sad news.

If you are referring to the plastic gear that goes on the end of the shafts perpendicular to the main diff gears, then yes I do. And it has your name on it!

I'm probably gonna show around 3. I can't believe they haven't changed the layout. MT said THIS Sunday.
