My understanding is some of the stages will require winching up, trials truck or not :twisted:

But is Ryans call, its his show

i wasnt saying i can drive everything, but if one guy has a good winch and is capable of pulling 2 trials trucks (because they are light) surely it aint a problem?

Sounds intersting, what sort of 4wheeling are you thinking this will involve??

Farm tracks?

Trials style hazards??

Winch Challenge type timed stages??

Or some thing kooler????
