the lower cog you have the easier it is to keep the rubber side down. i have been in plenty of situations where being taller would have put me on my lid. its just a more comfortable feeling when out on trails. not to mention the weight distribution benefits.

fenders are crinkled from tree's for the most part, every now and again a rock finds its way up there.

dove nosed and comp cut xj's look terrible imo. would also be illegal in the class I run at the local rockcrawl comp.

true good point on the lower cog part. curiosity is getting the best of me. why would it be illegal in rockcrawl comp?

there are 4 classes

street stock

super stock

modified

im in superstock which one of the rules dictates no significant body trimming/mods are allowed with the exception of minor fender trimming to clear larger tires
