The Mini Rubicon and Hill Climb! - Top Truck Challenge 2015

Описание: Surprise! Normally competitors would be directed to our infamous Mud Pit event at this point in the Top Truck Challenge competition, but due to the 2015 California drought, the Mud Pit is replaced with the gnarly, waterless Mini Rubicon. The course is approximately 140 feet in length and packed with boulders and rocks of various sizes. To keep things exciting, there are no penalties for winching, stopping, or backing up. Instead, we give each competitor 5 minutes to travel as far as they can. Traveling out of bounds results in disqualification at that point.

If you ever need a pick-me-up from a bad day, check out our Hill Climb event and relish the fact you’re not on it. We take a nasty, steep, 600-foot-long hill with an average angle of 60 degrees and modify it to Top Truck specs by plowing strategically placed holes for our competitors. As icing on the cake, we spread loose dirt everywhere to impede traction for the drivers. Competitors must think on-the-fly to battle the 5-minute time limit and they can winch, back up, or stop and take in the view of the Hollister Hills.
