Just got home from Oahu(different Island then where I live) with the 1st place trophy for the Hawaii Top Truck Challange!!! It was a great fun event with a 30 degree RTI ramp, 100' rock crawling course and 150' mud bog(3.5' deep). The TTC was limited to 22 rigs that were choosen by submitting an application with your rigs spec's and your driving experience. This was the frist annual running of this event and had over 75 others rigs entered to run in the mod bog section. Here's some pic's.

Wow, you can get a nice tan on your arms, from welding with no shirt on.

Thanks Jeff, It was a 30 degree ramp but I Don't know my score, I guess I was in a state of shock from winning I didn't hear the numbers. They are going to post the results on their web site in a few days.
Your weekend sounds like fun, wish you luck,,, wish I was there,,,o well, maybe next summer I'll ship the cj over....(?)

Definitely post the link when you get the results.

Congrats, that is one nice jeep, and it sounds like you know how to drive it as well.

Maybe someday, when one of us is rich and famous, we can all get together for a SWB TTC.

Do you have more pics?

Kudos on the win! That is awesome to hear you won.

The tires are 38.5x14.5x16.5, on the narrow Humvee wheels(8.25) the tires bulge at 39.5 tall.
