Toyota "race" truck

[ToyotaTom]

So I didn't have anything to step on to get in my truck. I got some inspiration from one of my sons race cars.

No more lock hubs for this guy. I also picked up some beadlocks off Craigslist for cheap.

 

[ToyotaTom]

Got my tires all bead locked up.

Neighborhood snow wheeling went down today!!!

 

[ToyotaTom]

I finally got this thing out for a proper shake down run. I had to fix some minor issues throughout the day but overall everything worked well. I really need a windshield of some sort.

Thanks. Yea I am going to try and do the short course race in June at Straddlelin. I am going to also try and put together a small endurance style race if I can get some guys interested. Nothing big just pick a local trail system, put on a helmet, one rig races at a time, fastest time wins!

Good luck getting a permit to race on any Govt owned trail system.

It won't be anything official, just some people wheeling with time in mind. When I lived in NC me and 5 other rigs did a similar race in Uwharrie National Forest. All the coordination was done via the interweb, it's a run what you brung race.We met at the trailhead, walked the designated route, went over the previously discussed rules, pick names out of a hat for start positions,one rig on the course at a time, put on helmets and harnesses, 3,2,1 go!! No need to envolve the government, I know those people and any more organized than the above mentioned and the will want to be involved, so keep it small and simple. Just for fun.

Man I thought your front end looked familiar this afternoon. But the last time I looked at this thread your truck was still the red color.

Great meeting you today, and YES...wet and cold. Just finally warming up.

Hope to see you out on the trails this spring.

Another wet day of wheeling!

Rode around Reiter today.

 

[ToyotaTom]

I moved some logs around and did some wheeling yesterday at Reiter.

I got a new hood to cut up!

 

[ToyotaTom]

I got my hood cut up. I still need to drill holes for hood pins, paint it and clean it up some.

Looks good. I like the bulge over the flat skin look.

I thought the old hood looked pretty good, I'm sure this one will look good too.

The truck has a unique look, I like it
