I thought I remembered hearing it discussed in another event thread. But good to hear that it is confirmed.

I was told by Parker that the base every thing off of SORRCA rules

Class-2 "Trail" Details:
• Body/cage work must be at least 4.5" tall (including boat sides) and the inside of the front tires cannot extend outside of the width of the cab at the doors. • A front bumper is required and must be mounted to the vehicle's rail chassis and must be wider than the outside of the chassis rails (chassis cross rails do not count as bumpers). • You must run a full rail chassis, and the chassis (including bumpers) must be 3" longer than the wheelbase (this includes a chassis with a truggy rear frame). •Truggies are allowed, but you must replace the ladder frame behind the cab with tube, and the truggy rails must extend past the rear axle pumpkin to be legal. The bed must have a roll bar hoop and integrated shock mounts. It also must be a structural part of the rear of the vehicle. (If your bed does not meet ALL of the preceding criteria, it does not count as a truggy bed). • Flatbeds that run the full length of the rail chassis are allowed. The bed must be as wide as the cab the entire length of the bed. • 2 of the 3 following modifications are allowed:

o Dovetailing the rear *a truggy/tube bed that is narrower than the cab counts as a dovetail* (1/2 the width of the widest part of the cab).
o Boat sides (no more than 1.25" measured vertically from the bottom of the skid).
o Pinching the front (2/3 the width of the widest part of the cab).
• 120mm / 4.75" max tire size with a 2.2 max rim size including spare.
• Gates will be a minimum of 12" wide (so mind your width).



so that being said this is your guide line for 1.9 rig's based on class two rules and 2.2 wheels are legal...

I actually have 2 winches. One on the front and one for the rear. Rear one is controlled by 3rd channel on my Flysky gt3c and the front one is a wireless Warn Winch by RC4WD. It will definitely be ready for this event.

Panda and I will be there with all 3 of our Broncos. That should raise some jeep eyebrows.

Thanks! I already have IronHyde (SC8e) and Mirage (gtp2e), soon I'll have more of them changed over, my comp crawler will be Ratchet. Other than the grill and light stickers that came with the body, there are no other stickers on it.

Here's a pic of the interior of my chassis almost done. Just need a few minor tweets here and there. But 2 winches are set up ready to go.

Yeah so far Im loving the 21.5t motor, Im running it off a Castle MMP.
As for the wheel wells, its a Proline Lexan Floorpan. 12.5" wheel base. pretty much perfect for a Jeep JK but I would assume it would be extremely easy to modify it for shorter wheel base as in a G6 Jeep. Just cut throught the middle and then over lap them with shoe goo at the desired wheelbase. Then you could always use it for the 12.5" later if you wanted. Good luck.
