Its Official, the world's fastest mud trucks have picked a date to duel it out, wage battle, in a true clash of the titans event. This is a Fastest of the Fast race, at a place where the fastest in the world run, Lee County Mud Motorsports Complex.

The participants, mostly world record holders in some fashion, or some of the South's pro caliber, next generation mega trucks have chosen to square off on one of the industry's most storied of race tracks AND all of this is hosted by one of the finest champions of anything mud racing, Mr. Darryl Jones. The date, jot this down, October 3rd. Mud is set to FLY!.....keep reading below

A bit of a sidebar, this clash is an old school meets new school, best of the best, next generation event that ties in everything that was, to everything thats now. It trully could be considered the biggest race of the year.

The place...

Lee County Mud Motorsports Complex in Lee county North Carolina will open its gates again to the fastest rigs in the mud. This is the place where the fastest mud trucks on the planet compete. Period. They even have the sign. Now, some can argue the next generation of go fasts for the mud are in the deep south, the Pro Mega Trucks. Weve seen some built up North too, but the Mega Truck genre as a whole has caught up with your traditional race rigs and World Records normally held by a "rail" rig may start falling.

In fact, after speaking to the host of the event, Mr. Darryl Jones, the real story in this is that a Mega truck is only 6 one thousand's off the world record time and stands to be the top of the hill when the smoke clears. Reserection, owned by Johnny Adams and Larry Peirce, ran a 3.649 in a standard Hill and Hole race where the hills were verified at 4' and the mud was 36" in the last hole.

In other places, Hill N Hole has become, MORE HILL AND AIR, especially from a spectator stand point, but this is where it gets real.

This is a course designed, proven, tried and true, or whatver catch word you can add, that has set standards and broken records. Standards that carried across the country which helped shape standardized mud racing. Without Lee county, Hill N Hole, in Florida would have been something totally different if there at all. Sanctioned race tracks and distances, would have been years behind if not for this place. Its like a Wrigley Field, or a Yankee stadium THAT WONT be torn down. If you take going fast in the mud as a part of your life, you owe it to yourself to check this out, sign up to run at, or at least follow here at Offroad Nation Magazine.

The Who...

Well, this is the best part. Everyone is going to be there. Manseil Washburn with the worlds fastest diesel hill and hole truck, The South Bend Clutch Diesel, will be there. Of course the world famous Scooby Doo truck driven by Darryl Jones himself, plus other current and former world record holders. We will have ladies' champions on site, yes LADIES CHAMPIONS, not just some hot girls with nice headlights. Actually, if you mentioned their headlights and not in the MOST TASTEFUL fashion, someone is going to run you down, in world record fashion no less.

SUB 4 seconds, thats a big number for things here and we have plenty set to show up who can hit that mark. Jason Linden, one of the Fastest Hill and Hole Racers west of the Mississippi, multiple world record holder and sub 4 second truck will be here. Bobby Sellers, Wendel Skipper, Kody La Point, its a who's who for Mud Racing, and thats before any of the other Pro Caliber Mega Trucks sign up.....keep reading

Why is it so cool....

You don't get all of this in one place usually. Old school, new school, men, ladies, professionals from around the country all set to run at one of the most epic of places to run. This is, all smack talk aside, really one of the best combinations of anything fast in the mud for the year. My foot pushed the ground a little harder just writing this, and were still two months out from race day.

October 3rd, The Fastest of the Fast, Lee County Mud Motorpsorts Park, dont miss it.
