cool place..question, don't know the rules with MOA's, but if you dig your front, then reverse with the rear to "walk" left or right, does that count as a reverse??? or do you actually have to move backward??

cool video, thaks for sharing, I enjoy seeing peoples comp runs. I to would like to know why that body is not legal... is it because the hood doesn't extend far enough over the front axle? |

It is a half inch too short from the factory. I cut a piece of plastic and made it long enough, but It must have fallen off. so that is why it is ileagal.

They have to be a minimum of 12.5" long: o 2.1.6 - Bodied vehicles must be 3” minimum height on sides. No less than 12.5” total length and full original width, and no less than 5” in center. |

| Anytime any of the the tires rotate backward, whether intentionally or unintentionally, that is a reverse. |

| not always. i recall a certain question saying that if a driver is high centered and reverses then forwards and reverses again in an attempt to rock the vehicle than its only 1 reverse call since he had not made forward progress. may be wrong

| You are correct in that instance. I guess my statement should have been clarified by saying "anytime any of the tires are in contact with the ground and any one of them rotates backward...." |

OK, so say the tire rotates backwards, but the car progresses forwards and either left or right...I don't want this to be a thread killer, and the reason I ask is during the video the front is locked and he reverses (his tires rotates backwards) and the ass end of his car goes right...I thought, is that a reverse?? he didn't go backwards... just wondering...thanks for the clarifications. the time on the vid I was thinking was 2:02...just after he says "progress" but it seems like he spins his front tires backwards and no reverse was called.....

Ya, I got stuck on that rock. So I front dig reverse and nothing happened. So I 4wd reversed and it is only 1 reverse because I never went forward. It is all in the same reverse.
