What makes Jeepspeed racing so rewarding.? Anyone who tastes victory has to earn it. Winners received the respect of their peers, and some great rewards. The top finishers in each of our 4 Jeepspeed classes at Parker 425 received a set of KMC wheels, a TuffStuff 13,000 lb. winch, a Rugged Radios...

Sorry...you are correct.....brain fade....37" open tire in 4700.

Interesting thread. Maybe jus a few guys posting but I bet there are a lot of lurkers watching. Jeepspeed was started by guys that had raced everything from Stock to Trophy Truck so our ideas are to make truck racing affordable. Its all about tire size and travel. Thats the way to reduce...

Confirming the rumor JEEPSPEED GOES YOKOHAMA Yokohama tires signs a multi year agreement to be Title sponsor of the longest running spec class in U.S. desert racing history. All of us here at Jeepspeed give thanks to General Tire for 10 years support but now are...

Like I said. Good post. We hate to get into these online discussions but.....1720 your 4 to 6 entries is a little misleading. The only time Jeepspeed had four 1700s was not surprisingly at this years Covid V2R. If you check the 2019 BITD points summary the Average 1700s was 8 plus 7 other...

Tim, good thread. Pee Wee, thanks for endorsing 4700. You guys will be fast next season. Could see ten trucks racing soon. dislocate1, You are correct. A 1700 with stroker motor, 35" tire and more travel and better shocks is the most economical way for 1700 guys to go faster. Red Ford Racer...

Revive a dying class.???? Interesting post from our long time racer Tim Martin. Here is my personal take on this subject. Speed cost money so how fast do you want to go. Your average speed chart proves that. After racing teams in the desert since 1991 in about every truck class from stone...

Jeepspeed has created a new home for Protrucks. Our Class 4700 for tube frame vehicles with Jeep or Dodge recognizable grill and front end. Max wheelbase 123". Tire 37" Generals. 18" front travel. Rear travel open.The rules are much looser than last Protruck rules. So now many other trucks will...

My least favorite Baja photos. Night before the race the boys were in the bar....1995 Baja 1000 San Ignacio Don-A-Vee Motorsports Goodyear teams pit. Seven 55 gall barrels of race fuel!!!! Total loss semi, tools, spares fuel etc. The Herbst family helped us rebuild a pit to service all the...

I am shocked. How could anyone do this to such an iconic Jeep???????

Hemi LJ. Thanks for the Don Adams pic and memories of this episode. I was at San Matias Don-A-Vee pit waiting to get in with Don when the flash flood filled the wash. Half the field had already gone through before the flood . The other half wanted Sal Fish to stop the race. There was over a...

A Race That’s Ripe with Talent the Dakar Rally cultivates a new wave of racers in North America. The long-term relationship between the Sonora and Dakar Rallies had resulted in a partnership on their respective tournaments some years ago, but it’s finally cultivated into a more involved...

SCORE recognizers other Jeepspeed classes so pretty confident they will recognize 4700. Will keep you updated later. Thanks for the interest every one looking at this thread. Sorry Rory did not mean to hijack your 2 year old post.

We have applied the 20 years experience with our other classes .Keep it simple. 4700 is only one page of rules. Anything is welcome 123" wheelbase or less. With 18" front travel limit and 37" tires 900hp is tough to handle. Momentum is what it is all about. So, Pro Trucks, Class 8 , 7200, 1400...

Just found this old thread and thought some of you might like to know what has happened in last 2 year or so. Jeepspeed created a class 4700 for tube frame vehicles at 123" wheel base, 37" Generals,18" front travel and Dodge or Jeep body with open engines. Some of our teams realized a Pro Truck...

Trailered it to the finish then put it on the podium right in front of the Class winning Baja Boot?????????????????

We are listening and learning. Maybe underdrives and forced induction permitted on 4 and 6 cylinder engine trucks to balance up with the big V8s in the class. Stop by our contingency booth at Laughlin and educate us some more. As we are attracting such a varied amount of vehicles we need to...

Good catch Desertspeed. As we get different style trucks join the series we may need the occasional rule tweak to contain costs and attempt to keep close racing. The overdrive / underdrive was not thought about until BITD just recently changed 6100 rules. 37" tires don't need it. Now 6100...

Jeepspeed has been getting a lot of interest and enquiries about expanded to Jeepspeed Unlimited Class 4700 going forward in 2020 . 4700 will be identical to Jeepspeed Outlaws Modified Class 3700 but with following exceptions. The class can attract many different vehicles that are currently...
