Hey !,I was there. I only entered my truck , because I didn't feel that the RatMad was a car that would make a coast to coast trip. And I didn't want to split any votes I might get between the two cars. I thought about entering it because I really didn't finish the truck the way I wanted. I can always go back and rework it. The RatMad did make it into Rat Rod magazine so I was real happy about that. It was also great winning the Cannonball last year, but everyone building and finishing their cars is the best part of the Cannonball. I can't wait to get started on next year's car, if I ever figure out what to build.
