Sooo...


I have been invited to compete in a comp in Canada called Hard Grass Havoc. Its going to be insane! This is the first year they are doing the comp so we will see how it goes.

Clayton Kraatz is the owner of EMF heims. They are the strongest heims in the world. He is the guy that is putting the competition on. Some of you will recognize his buggy called the Warthog. Its on ridiculous planetary axles. He was in Top Truck Challenge 2008 with me.

He decided to make this competition since Fourwheeler magazine put restrictions on who could enter Top Truck now.


Its going to be a cross between TTC and KOH but with most the competitors having big monster buggies.

I am pretty nervous about how hard the courses are going to be but it will be a blast. I just hope the Scout comes home in one piece.



This is going to be a thread that I can document the trip.


I will be going up with my buddy Leroy from Nevada. He has a sweet Peterbilt with a flatbed and will be hauling both our rigs.


Here is a link to the comps website www.hardgrasshavoc.com
Not a ton on there but it does have the list of competitors and some basic info.


Thanks for looking and wish me luck! I am not going with the intentions of winning. Its going to be dang tough and there is 25 of the best rigs competing. I just want to go have fun and complete as much of the comp as possible and hopefully have a working rig at the end still.

The comp is Aug 3,4. Coming quick!

Im not changing much for the event.

I replaced and repaired some damaged tubing on the roll cage and added a few more tubes.



And there is a GOOD chance we will be running at night. Getting 25 rigs thru these courses in 2 days is gonna take awhile. The Scout has had no other lights besides my Liteforce headlights so I added some Xvision lights to the front and mounted some rocklights around the rig. Should help



Thats the extent of my upgrades. I REALLY wanted to add a NOS kit but I just dont have the funds. Oh well

ALSO


This event is going to get a lot of coverage. I know they are working with some magazines and are going to try to produce a video.

If you own a business and want some cheap advertising....I have A LOT of sheetmetal room for stickers. I dont need much product but some money for fuel will buy some space on my rig for your companies logo.

You better place in Top 3... then you could buy a Rekluse for your bike! :freak:

Good luck Cheston, sounds like it's going to be a great time. The Scout looks ready for it... are you? ;)
