 I got a four wheeler mag TTC in it 04 or 05 not sure, and there's a red sami in it(guy named savage).  Read the all the different courses and the guy usually placed in the top four (kicking some butt in the big toy world ;D)

thats ultimate adventure. Top Truck Challenge is the one where you vote for the trucks to get in and then they compete in California. Usually its buggies and 44" tires minimum.

You guys are all confused.
The mags host 3 Big events yearly.

Ultimate Adventure by Petersons

Top Truck Challenge by Four Wheeler

Real Truck Club Challenge by Four Wheeler.


Ultimate Adventure has had both Samurais and Trackicks partake in the fun, but it is not really a contest, just a fun week of wheeling.

Top Truck Challenge is the original best of the best show us what you got contest.  I know Sammys have competed and done OK but I'm not aware of any Trackicks competeing.

Real Truck Club Challenge is in its 3rd year this year and has had a Samurai both in 03 and 04.  No Trackicks.

Savage placed 3rd in the 04 RTCC and Mike Haggen (sp?) was on the 04 Ultimate Adventure.

the first video I got from peterson's off road top truck challange has a red Samurai in it.

Of course his spotter didn't know how to Secure a winch and wrapped the winch cable all around the front axle in the Tank Trap.
