Would you believe me if I told you that there will be 160 total competitors, in 4 different vehicle classes, flying like Bats out of Hell in a 7-minute-interval race - all vying for their share of $30,000 in cash and prizes... in Uwharrie???


IT'S TRUE! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />



When information first surfaced about this event, the reports were met with a great deal of skepticism û so, a few very highly respected members of the NC4x4.com forums, and The Carolina Trail Blazers attended a meeting between the Event Promoter and the Uwharrie N.F. Rangersà Then, a bit later, they had a second meeting with just the Event Promoterà

They all reported back with a slew of enthusiastic Thumbs-Up!

If you donÆt want to break your junk, then at least come out and watch some of us do it! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" />

Officially, I'm the 'Co-Driver / Spotter', but here's what will most likely be the case:

Doug is going to have a steering wheel and a gas pedal in front of him (I doubt he'll remember there's a brake pedal! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> ) --- I'll have a pair of grab handles in front of me, attached to the roll cage (which I have no intention of letting go of!), and a little button for my thumb that's connected to the horn...

While Doug's right foot is super-glued to the floor, and his hand-eye coordination is busy avoiding pesky things like trees... my job will be to warn any wayward bystanders of our rapid approach -- *Beep-beep-beeeeeeep* *BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!*

The stock Isuzu horn should be plenty-intimidating <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
