SCORE Unlimited Trophy Truck racer Justin Matney debuted his brand new number 4 Rigid Industries Trophy Truck, at the SCORE Imperial Valley 250 race in September.
The Geiser Brothers-built truck is unique, as it is a four-wheel drive vehicle that has some of the latest drivetrain technology available in a desert racing vehicle at this level.
Although this four-wheel drive Trophy Truck is state-of-the-art, incorporating this type of drivetrain isn't new. The Herbst/Smith Motorsports number 19 Ford F-150 was one of the first successful 4x4 vehicles that competed in SCORE's Unlimited Trophy Truck class. While CV-joint problems and other drivetrain issues have seemed to plague attempts to continue to run four-wheel drive Trophy Trucks in the past, this new Geiser-built Trophy Truck, has the advantage of new materials, stronger drivetrain components, and other factors that made it worth another try.
"This truck is a totally new creation," says Justin Matney.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_btn title="READ The WHOLE STORY in SJ-9 Now!" color="warning" size="lg" link="url:http%3A%2F%2Fread.uberflip.com%2Fi%2F590058-score-journal-issue-9-2015%2F32|title:Read%20The%20Full%20Story%20in%20SJ-9%20Now!|target:%20_blank"][/vc_column][/vc_row]
