Yeah, all 4x4 rigs are welcome. It's a timed event so people are out on the track individually. If you note in the beginning post there are two classes 6 cylinder and up, 4 cylinder and down.

Last time the 4 cylinder crowd kicked the v8 crowd but meaning the fasted V8 would have placed 5th in the 4 cylinder group!

Anyway, it'll be a blast no pressure to perform. Just have fun.

Out of curiousity, is 4x4 really required? Do you keep the trucks in 4h when you race?

Good question, the answer is no. 4x4 is not required but is mentioned so that we attract 'our' crowd of people. It really wouldn't be that fun if a bunch of actual circle track cars showed up.  The second part of the question is that last time the track was so dry that we all ran 2wd. It's based on the amount of traction people are getting. We don't want people going so fast that it becomes dangerous. So, if it's really really wet and soopy which it might be, we'll run 4wd, otherwise, 2wd.

Man what fun! The track was all smooth and banked perfect! There was a total of 16 rigs that showed up but in the end it was a zook who took it all. Of course it was Eric Bewley. A small group of us ended up doin a snow run after wards and found about 1 foot of snow. Had a great time and will be there next time. I took some pics so here they are
