There was 155 trucks at the show it was a great turn out. I place 2nd in my class. There was some nice trucks there. On another note I have decided to put 4.10 gears in my truck I talk to few guys at the show and they sad that would be the best because of running 20 inch tires.

You mean 20" wheels, right?

It's not the wheel size that determines what gearing you need, it's the height of your tires. The taller your tires, the numerically higher your gears need to be to compensate. Up to a certain point, when the smaller pinion gear becomes too weak to be useful.

Congratulations on your placing!

I ended up going ATVing on Saturday, then using Sunday to recover.
