Sandco-Performance Trophy Truck
Here are some pictures of the Trophy Truck we are building for Team Franklin Motorsports. These pictures were taken after most of the chassis was finished. The truck is a traditional front engine with full bulkhead from front to rear 4 link cans. Front arms are full plate design and will be installed on next pictures. Laughlin should be the trucks first SCORE race for 2008. We will keep pictures coming soon.

Re: Sandco-Performance Trophy Truck
Looks killer Darren, coming along very nicely. Will be anticipating watching it on the courses. What kind of drivetrain will you be using along with hubs and breaks?

Looks sharp, thanks for sharing. Kind of a revised take on the Gordon backbone concept.

Re: Sandco-Performance Trophy Truck
thanks. which shocks are you going to run? seems like most trophy trucks run Kings, but some are running Foxs now as well. the bottom cage of the cab reminds me of the new Porter trophy trucks. they have a similar looking cage. new pics would be great

Re: Sandco-Performance Trophy Truck
On this truck we are also running King 4.0" coil overs and bypasses.We have another truck on order and that truck the customer wants to run Fox. No particular reason other than the customer is set up pretty good with Fox.
On our sand cars,pre-runners and race cars we have about a 50 / 50 split on the shocks we run.
Thanks, Darren
