It's an interesting event for sure. I'd love to go check it out sometime. It took some time, and a combination of the various disciplines before it really got some traction and started making a name for itself.

It seems to lead towards some really unique builds. Often off road trucks and buggies are purpose built with one primary consideration and everything else lumped in as they can behind that. But with some parts of this event, they are making some really unique rigs that are really good at most aspects of off roading.
