Does it really matter? there is no real purse and well out of the points.I saw lots of comments that thought the Hummer would not be competitive.I'll bet there are guys reavaluating what is a Trophy Truck today!

Totally agree. This type of vehicle is not new in the TT class though. Many guys in the past have ran what the call a Hybrid in the class. Basically what RG did using a Class 1 car and putting a Truck, SUV body on it. Only thing that are disadvantage is CVs/Axles instead of Straight axle so Less travel but make up for it in LBS department. Be cool to see Robby run the Hummer more often.

I just thought Sal was upset and made a quick judgement, I did'nt think the donuts where worthy of penalty that's all.............top 10 starting position is all good though...
