Rock crawling is cool and all, but then I think about it and most of the stuff those things crawl over can be walked up by a person with relatively little effort.

Generally speaking in those other venues the automobiles are capable of traversing the course faster than a human on foot would be able to.

*sigh* Get out of my thread already since the point of this type of contest is for the driver to run his rig through the course faster than the others as well as staying in the marked area..it is harder than you think and takes more skill than you could imagine.

That said then grow up already and realize that sport is sport there doesn't have to be logic to it.

Actually they did that like 5 times with no rollover the guy above is actually stopping it from a full roll.

After those shots were taken we were all standing around and he went up higher with his spotter and ended up doing two full rolls in one move. They were laughing so hard we could hre them at the bottom and some of their friends rolled em back over and they drove back off the hill
