['84 Bronco II]

Dan Fresh is running away with the 4500 win, but it is a super close race in 4600 right now.

 

[Dookey]

Those Lovell boy's kick some serious ass.

 

[Sandy Johnson]

Lets stir up some shit. If you guys had to pick- Miller vs Bomber chassis?

bomber, because jeeps are 🏳️‍🌈

 

[Bebop]

Miller because East Coast

 

[djljeep]

Miller because right coast, but also because of the development he's put into them. There is only a handful of bent tubes on the whole car because most of the main chassis is sleeved with aluminum to resist denting. Also a bit more modular in terms of desert/shortcourse/east coast setups.

On the other hand the bomber is lighter, needs less power to go fast, and seems much less expensive to build.


seems like all of 4600 is in traffic in Spooners/Outerlimits.

 

[TiTRD]

Miller. He gives good hugs

I think they are being held up by upper class trail tampons.

 

[JohnnyJ]

Good top 4. Glad to see Casey get on the podium. They put a hurting on the rest of the field.

 

['84 Bronco II]

Looks like Erik Miller broke free and took the lead in the 4600 class now.

It is ridiculous how far back 2nd place is in 4500. Dan Fresh ran away with it

He's retired. He only made it ~50% through the first lap.

Yeah, John got a couple flats and only had one spare and there appears to be a real parking lot on a couple of the trails. Fresh managed to sneak through before things got too snarled and checked the F out.

He'll be getting some of that Ford money too.

damn.

 

[crazybluerider]

We're coming up on a hour without a 4800 car crossing the line too.

 

[ridered3]

Race ops located at my house. Big tv is the Ultra4 TV/Premium coverage. Smaller tv is the free YouTube stream. The multi screen is the Production Cameras available on the Ultra4 TV/Premium. Unfortunately the Production Cameras are not selectable, yet.

It's information overload and I love it!

 

[Provience]

bronco podium in 4500 is he also running ford power? either way, awesome to see the ford sponsorship pay out at any level! great reason to help keep ford on board

 

[TRINDU]

I'm convinced this is the other announcer (not Ian).

He must get paid for every name drop.

 

[Donk]

Epic drive form Dan Fresh. 71st to 5th overall

 

['84 Bronco II]

Ken Hale is moving in the 4680 Bronco again, but there's no chance in hell he can finish at this point.

[Weasel]

The 4400 course is different then what's run today correct?

 

[Russell]

Yes. It's 3 laps and much longer / harder.

extra lap

 

[Sandy Johnson]

Did that comanche lose forward gears or something?

 

[Provience]

weird right? he went forward for a bit and then spun it backwards again something fishy, maybe lost a few gears?

 

[Sandy Johnson]

I'm thinking maybe it drives forward when there's not much load on it, which is why he waited at the top of the hill to turn around? He turned around again for the next up hill.

 

[ridered3]

I think it only has front wheel drive. So having to back up climbs then drive down descents in FWD.

 

[Russell]

Hopefully he has a spare transmission at main waiting for him!
