Gotta love YOTA baby!!

99 taco 4cyl failed frame insp, dealer tried endlessly to keep me from takin the truck, NO WAY signed the waiver, drove away - went to a mud jam in VT (checkout vermonster4x4.com) showed up late, barely made it to the 4cyl class mud drags and DESTROYED the Competition (by 2-3 car lengths each race) -took 1st place, got a trophy and 100 bucks, then mistakenly signed up for "the trench" and found out why you don't put a daily driver in mud like that, but made it just as far as ANY of the 25 or so other trucks(127' most of the big rigs made it 130 ish except for 2 MONSTERS that made it all the way(well over 500 HP))
they called it "the little toyota that could" -I broke all the belts, rigged it up with pantyhose, drove it home got new belts for 30 bucks and (gotta love toyota)only took about 10 mins to put them on. Still cleanin the mud out of EVERYWHERE, but will surely be puttin the yota to the test again before it goes back...PIcs soon

 

very cool! but....

 

That truck in the back of the trophy pic "the rock" was awesome in the trench, pretty much skimmed it! Didn't have anyone takin pics but I did get a vid of my trench run, was way worse that it looks in the vid, truck was FULL of rocks and mud http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57WaNQqve5I
