In search of the Ultimate 80

[DTAYLOR]

Create classes, and sub-classes.

Eg: Fj80, FZJ80, LX, (include all sent worldwide)
Naturally aspirated, turbo, SC
Expidition, rock crawler, mall crawler,
Lifted, not lifted, locked, unlocked
stock power, V-8 power

Create "extra points" for certain mods, like DIY mods such as pin 7, or temp gauge.
Points for an ARB bull bar, or a Short Bus bumper, winches, and other stuff.
Points for appearance.
Points for number of difficult trails successfully driven.
Points for consecutive club meetings attended
Points for creative, useful FAQ's, tutorals, and other useful posts
Points for greeting new members, demerits for un-called for flaming
Demerits for not using search, before asking a question that has been obviously answered a million times.
Points for doing business with a mud vendor.
Points for helping fellow mudders

Have a Mudder Of The Year Award, at Moab, or somewhere.

This could be a lot of fun, and promote the 80, the site, build the value of our rigs, etc.

I'm not saying mine is it, just that there's only one "Ultimate".

Ultimate: not to be improved upon or surpassed; greatest; unsurpassed.

I'm not saying mine is it...

I'd say yer pretty darn close

Have everyone meet at rubicon and race them through the trail. Then make a sweet video documenting the whole thing.

Nobody nominated my beater? Do dents give you points in appearance?

I think your Cruiser gets the "Wheeled the Crap out of" award.

Does owner satisfaction in his ride count for anything? Seems like its gotta play a part.

LX_Treme, Drexx's U80, TiredIron's Volvota, Action Jackson's 80, Christo's Shortbus.

I would add Kirk's LT-1 powered 80 series as well as the Proffitt guys doing the 4BT conversions as well as all of the terrorist dudes with holes cut into the roof and .50 calibers hanging out of them and I would add also Brian Jowett's 80 series with the manual trans and Orion box and Waggoner's FZJ45 (it is an 80 series after all) and Christo's FZJ85...

The list could really go on and on and on and on and on and on and on....

Lets not forget about DesertDude's rig. Im still drooling over that one.

We can work that out. We got a lot of vendors here that most likely will contribute.

 

[FJ809496TLC]

Still searching......

I know... your just jealous.

 

[outbackoffroadgear]

I think this would be a great thing to do. I could get toyota owner magazine to put the top 3 80s in the magazine or maybe the winner on the cover.

 

[GAS-A-LOT!]

I KNOW THIS IS AN OLD THREAD BUT...


WHAT HAPPENED>>>>????????.......!!!!!!!!!


Sorry but I'm just a newb... But it looked like it could have been a world famous competition. You know having cruisers from around the world comming to compete for the grand prize!!!!

ONE MILLION applauses.... (wait is that spelled right?)

 

[NorCalDoug]

what happened?

as far as I know...nothing.

 

[FJ809496TLC]

Too busy building one. I hope we can get this back on tract. We have a lot of wheelers here that deserves recognition.

 

[TiredIronGRB]

Too busy building one.
