Why build a truck with an ecotech motor for desert racing? It's all about bang for the buck. KOH is getting good exposure for the money invested compared to the top desert racing teams spending 10x the amount to race for a little more exposure. The SPEED channel even showed KOH the last couple years, and I'm sure RG and others like the exposure to 40k+ fans on the lakebed.
