    This gets my vote. KOH is my dream event, if only I had the money!! I think we could easily set up a short course and do a time attack style run so people aren't running into each other and what not.

    Lol without crawl boxes, I don't think our trucks low range is slow enough to ghost ride the whip.

    In my experience tug o wars never go well. You either do them on pavement and break shit or do them in dirt and both rigs dig themselves ingo holes and neither move.

    Anyone with an auto and no crawlbox would win. Just put it in gear and watch it sit there. Haha. Unless it was downhill. Haha

    Psshh done, did it at last years Moab meet. There were 4 of us doing behind the rocks and on the last leg out we all put it in 4 lo and L and were hanging out of the window and standing outside the truck on the sliders steering. I jumped off and was ghost riding mine until it decided it would rather steer to the right off the trail so I had to jump on and steer it again. Such a dam good time! Did it into camp as well. After using Adams truck to help get the crawler up a obstacle in bfe 4 of us rode back to the site in the back of his truck drinking wine while he pumped Hollywood undead and walked next to it.

    Moral of the story...our trucks can go slow enough for a ghost ride race if you have a brisk walk haha.

    I would be in for a koh time attack, as long as the winner gets a free alignment, and I win...
