Hi, I'm a newbie! (sort of)

Thanks Benni,

I picked up a copy of it for memories' sake. Might be my first time ever in a magazine. The trucks normally too ugly to feature Thanks for looking out!

Hi Phil,

thanks for the information, nice story. What rear gear are you using?

The caltrac setup make this thing hook hard. Real cool and unique build. These little trucks are very rare here in germany, if i find a decent Dodge D50 / Mitsu Mighty Max some day i´ll build something similar

thanks,

Yes, the torsion bar set up we have is similar to the MOPAR set up and works very well in tandem with leafsprings...even before the Caltracs were installed. We are using an AMC M20 (also called a Dana model 20 sometimes) rearend out of an AMX. So far so good. It seems to be plenty strong...only downside is that they don't make a pro gear for it.

Yeah, a Dodge D50 would be an interesting build for sure!! I'd like to see that!

Hi Phil & Gäste,

ich hab gerade auf Youtube ein Video gesehen, und zwar vom Primerracer, der war als "Kameramann" dabei

und hat den Wheelie des Tages / Jahres schön in Zeitlupe gefilmt :

Frage an den Primerracer : welche Kamera, die Casio Exilim , und wenn ja, welche ?

Hi Benni,

Thanks for keeping an eye out! It would have been a shame to miss Primeracer's videos. It is by far the best footage we have of the truck at launch. Thanks again.

Hello Prime,

Would you be willing to sell the raw footage you captured of the Luv that weekend? I would eventually like to make a launch sequence video of the truck in order to better analyze the weight transfer at the hit. Your vidoes are great quality, and a real pleasure to watch over and over again!
