G`mans Trank Trap at the Gig

As of the Spring Fling it has yet to be conquered.

Koz gave it a heck of a try. As did the bronce of 4 play (did I get that name right ? :tonka:) but nobody made it.

After the Spring Fling there was a bunch of talk of some big rigs coming out to give it a try.

Well ?

I'll bet you one punch to marv's gut, that I make it through.

If I don't, you get to punch him.

My truck's still in pieces, and I'm moving right now, so don't think I'll be at the gig... Otherwise I'd try it, not bigger, but maybe I'm lighter...

I don't see anyway I'm getting my wheels welded together and tires mounted by next weekend, though..

thats all you have to do? give me a break...... that will take about 3 hours in all, 2 nights after work and your done


as for the tank trap, 5 dollars to try it and if you make it you get $20..... the rest goes to charity? that way there is more of a reason to try it and make some money rather than just bury your truck in mud.

I would try it but I hate mud

Hmm, not all I have, thats just the most obvious. But since I don't have 2 nights free between now and then, its a moot point. I don't think, though, that I can weld 4 beadlocks leak free, primer and paint them, hand mount 4 brand new SXs, and torque 160 bolts in 3 hours. I failed my nascar pit crew test, sorry.

i remember very clearly when i did my weld on locks. It took about an hour to weld all 4 and it takes 20-30 minutes per wheel to mount them.

and 160 bolts? about 80 of them are useless do they have an anti-coning ring?

QUIT MAKING EXCUSES!

how about it costs 1 dollar to attempt the tank trap, and if you make it, you get to pick one trucker hat from marv's collection?
