There is a huge difference in how vehicles are built for the trail and for show. This video clearly identifies the difference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCfgx_krIo0 Here is a link to the pics of the truck- http://sporttruck.automotive.com/104141/0904st-2008-chevy-silverado-2500-hd-crew-cab/index.html Notice the single shear bolt holding the double front coilovers? Yeah, bad idea.

I almost think my truck could have handled that jump better. Pretty cool seeing those coilovers hitting the ground. Took him a long time to shut that engine down; aren't those show trucks supposed to have shutoffs? Or did they put in an injection? Fuel shutoff might work better on a diesel.
