Well the pre-event GeoPalooza Truck Night outing did not go well at all. Hit the first big mud hole and when 3/4 of the way through, the right axle broke and left us stuck.................



With power to only one wheel since the trans gears are locked, I was able to sling some pretty good mud, but not going anywhere...............



You can see how deep the mud is below and we were not the only ones stuck.......

Well, Johnny - any luck sourcing those high-po axles made especially for big block racing Metros? 8)

You know running this critter through the mud has a practical side. If you can just run it hot for a while after a trip through the hole, that gunk'll bake on to the manifold and then you can call it a ceramic coating.

Would it be against the rules to throw a set of snow chains on your tires?

Traction is not an issue. Horsepower is
