Man, you guys are HARSH!!!

When someone else made their 11th post ever asking about running 37's or 39's on their TT (and it looked like it was written by a fifth grader) I jumped all over his ass...and got my ass chewed out for being harsh...LOL

Welcome to RDC RJ...TrophyLites are quite similar to BajaLites (same concept anyway), each has their strong suits, and Ruckus doesn't like Pistol Pete (guy who runs BajaLite program). There, now that you're caught up to speed...

[VeryFast]

The BL is going to eat up the Protruck on the short/rough races due to the "approach angle" of the Protruck You just can't drive them fast in the ruts and rhythm sections. I would think the BL's have a little better front geometry also. We will see.... Longer smoother races... the protruck will dominate due to shear hp/tq.

Now, lets slap a 500hp v6 in a TL for the baja 500... haha. If it will fit.

No more rollovers for team TNT, gonna be HIGH speed rollovers now!

Keep it on all fours boys and lets party in Reno!

Wish I could help keep the "rubber-side" down, just don't want too work on that throughout the hwy 95 corridor; neither in Ensenada either, lmao...although I would contemplate it
