I've seen that race on TV and about crapped when I saw the course setup! I saw several guys have to throw it in reverse because they missed a turn (not because they were hauling balls, but because the 50 cent piece of tape that told them to turn instead of going into Mabel's diner nose first had come loose!). Anyway, I can't wait to see how something that big will do on a course like that!
The Targa Truck handles better than you imagine. I actually race with a Subaru club, their courses are super tight and give me a crazy work-out. Here's a photo of use lining up to go.
