Title: comp bog
Post by: Blazin40s on March 01, 2012, 12:14:57 PM
I've never been to a comp bog b4.  Not even to spectaite.  So I was thinkin I may try one or 2 this year.  My question is, For those of u that are fimiliar with my rig, how would it do?  Would it be a big waste of time, or would I stand a chance?   ==noob  ++peace

Didn't figure id stand a chance against a 1000hp truck.  Isn't there different classes to help even it up?

many different places have different rules.. some run stock classes,, superstock classes.. tire size classes,, cut tire classes.. open classes,, you just need to check them out.. some times a stock jeep with basic oversize tires might run farther than a built 502 with 44 inch boggers,,

You will never know until you try it, not so much about keepin up as it having fun with something you built. Our truck wasnt finished until the night before millingtons bog last year and it made it through the pit and its along way from 1000 hp,but it is a  forddd ==rocks

Post by: four_by_ken on March 03, 2012, 05:37:56 AM
I would give it a shot.  Find one that isn't too far away and has a class that you fit it.

Also find out if it is a bog or more of a race.

They are fun... you might get hooked.

I know I don't have a chance in my class either but its the bragging rights you get with the buddies that makes it worth it.  You'd be surprised the extra rush you get sitting in your truck in front of a big crowd all staring at you.  Fun stuff.  If you make it to the TAMR Millington bog I will see you there.

Talk a couple guys into going with you and make it your own competition.  Each of you toss $20 in and the winner takes all.

Ya, fairgrove is cancelled. IMO, just come hang out and watch one. You can usually get in the pits and look at everyone's rigs and talk to people for the same amount of money as it is to be on the spectator side. I've entered a few with my old truck but I do also prefer play bogs.
