I guess this should be in the photo section, but I thought I would put it here because it is an awesome event.

It is located in Orangeville, Ontario, Canada. The guy who owns the property opens it up twice a year. At the event on sunday there had to be at least a thousand people, few hundred trucks. 33", 34-38", 38-44", and 44"+ classes. Food, drinks, (no booze unfortunately). Also even if your not competing, you can bring your truck and just muck around the mud track they have set up.

I went for my first time, and will DEFINITELY not be my last. There are a bunch of videos on youtube, I will put mine on there as soon as I can string the clips together and make it a little more youtube worthy. For now here are the pictures (not many from my camera unfortunately.

The pit for the bigger tires:

haha yea I was skeptical on the height of them, but after they were on I liked the way they looked so I kept em that tall. I get a lot of looks and thumbs up's from people (especially truckers aha). Well worth the 450 US for a 4" turbo back system. (plus the sound is awesome!)

and orange toyota.... nah, doesn't stick out in my memory, I probably saw it, but hard to remember from the tons of trucks there. Also I wasn't planning on competing either, but got peer pressured from my buddies.

Shouldn't have listened, I had to drive home in front wheel drive with my driveshaft in the bed... snapped my rear u-joint right after the finish line. THEN two weeks later (so last weekend) I started gettin a little click in the rear end, turned into a big clunk. Figured it was the new u-joint I installed, and just installed it wrong.... NOPE, took the cover off my diff, and there was a big nast hole of missing teeth on my ring gear.

Looks like my future planned upgrade to a 14 bolt FF is happening next week LOL


(sorry for the novel of a post!)

yea, he definitely had at it for a bit. Him and the guy in the black truck were so close to making it too. I think the only person who actually made it was that massive propane diesel ford.
