That Terribles suit is a collectors item! I'm displaying it on a mannequin in my office soon. 13 years helping them in the desert and that is the coolest piece of memorabilia that I have. My next goal is a Rob Mac Mastercraft suit, then I want the Joey D signature series!

Austin,
There is a set of rules on the KOH web page for UTV's. Basically any engine mod and suspension mod, Saftey is the big key. Non modified stock fuel tank or Fuel cell, Saftery harness, nets, roof.
Sorry I don't have exact details but I say you go for it. If you plan to race your short course car you might want to reconsider as they are too low and too wide and you can't see out of them well.
good luck!

how is the course marked out really good or do u need a gps? to be able to know were ur going?
Team Green

It will be open for pre running on Sunday after sign up. It will be marked well but because some of the course is shared with the big cars there are intersections where UTV's go one way and the big cars go another. If you pre run with someone first then you can do it with out a GPS but Jeff (promoter ) reccomends one.
Stock fuel tanks are legal. Modified cars are nice but I did it in basically a stocker in a very good time when we were laying out the course. An in shape spotter and a winch for emergencies is a plus!
