I would guess it is instant mashed potatoes. Pretty good video otherwise. Not too bad for a created course. | |

The Spud Run was Awesome! And you can just let the family dog lick your rig clean.  |

It is indeed instant mashed potatos. A LHS was doing a spud run back in 1987 or so. It is pretty cool to do and watch. I built a rig with 1/8th chassis, all 3 diffs locked, t-maxx paddles and super low gearing one year. It did okay, but it sure was fun. You should see when people used to run clods with twin turbo 05's and 14 cells.

looks like an rcer's dream place. Spud run was interesting, it looked like the last two that made it easy were 2wd. Not sure though |

Yes, 2wd. They were 1/5th scale FG's. Hard to get a scale from the video, but they are big.
