Very Cool Drew! I forgot all about that! Yes, I used to watch that event religously when I had the Speed Channel. Dont recieve it anymore, bummer, But what a test of man&machine! I think Dodge won the "Stock" truck class with Walker Evans in 1992 or1993 when the V-10 3/4 Ton Ram came out. He took that truck to a win and class record! :thumbsup:
