I run flares because WV makes us cover the tires and it hides all the ugly cutting I do. I did get this jeep state inspected to run street legal class at some events.
I stink guy's because I didn't get any video of Missy running in her first mud race, We didn't win (we got beat by a built 6.0L truck in the street legal class) we took second with a 5.56 and the winner had a 5.44, not bad for a station wagon. We did beat Morris though he ran a 5.95 and in his second run he neutral dropped to try and gain a few tenths and ...Well watch this



I ran the deep pit in the teal jeep and even though I didn't do well I got alot of love from the crowd. I was the only set of 33's that even attemted it and the only set of radials that made the pit..Heck I was floating a few times..

Here's a video of me and Missy sand racing against each other at the "Challenge in the Hills" event...Yes she beats me.. But I did pull the pop up through the mountains and her jeep got hauled up on a semi trailer....

Since we decided to build a SBC mj for next year I'm putting this 4.5 stroker in the 2 dr so I can get it back together and start on the MJ. Should pick her times up a little. The top end is stock but I have another head I'm cleaning up alittle and looking into comp cams and I'll stick all that in in the spring. Just need to get it running and out of the garage.
