Top Truck Challenge Day 1: Tow Test, Frame Twister And Mud Pit

Top Truck Challenge Day 1: Tow Test, Frame Twister & Mud Pit

June 08, 2011

We just got a report from AMSOIL Powersports Technical Product Manager Len Groom, who is live on the scene of the 2011 Top Truck Challenge in Hollister Hills, CA. The challenge kicked off Tuesday with the competitors being introduced to the 2011 event by the Tow Test, Mud Pit and Frame Twister. While the Tow Test claimed only a broken driveshaft on a buggy, the Frame Twister lived up to its name and kept most competitors from even finishing.  The Frame Twister event is a brutal proving ground filled with holes, rocks and logs aimed at taking out these monstrous trucks with little effort. Len Groom reported that is was the most demanding Frame Twister yet and summed up what has been seen so far in one word: Tough.

After numerous extractions and broken parts in the Frame Twister, the challenge moved on to the Mud Pit event. These rigs don’t typically do well in this type of sludge but competitor Mike Keller hit the mud flying and skimmed along the top, making it look easy. We are now in Day 2 of the 2011 Top Truck Challenge, which will see the competitors battle the Obstacle Course, Hill Climb and Mini Rubicon. Judging by the photos we have received thus far, things are just getting good.

Who will emerge victorious in the 2011 Top Truck Challenge? Be sure to check back for more photos, updates and quotes directly from the competitors right in the thick of it.

The AMSOIL Next Bite named Best Overall Outdoor Fishing Program

All Amsoil boating products on one page.

The professionals at the AMSOIL sponsored The Next Bite are pleased to announce that they have been awarded “Best Overall Outdoor Fishing Program” in the 2011 Outdoors 360 Programming Excellence Awards.

TNB’s Pete Maina, who was also up for the Best On-Air Talent Award, is humbled by the recognition. “We were up against some pretty Pete Maina The Next Bitestiff competition- names that I grew up with. This really means a lot to all of us at TNB.”

When asked about the secret to their success, Maina responded “Lots of people deserve the credit for this. Our team, our viewers, our sponsors–they’re all part of the TNB family. It’s funny, because when we first sat down 8 years ago, we discussed what we thought it would take to make a successful fishing show– something that would be viewed as a trend-setter. We built the show around those ideas. Those elements are the same today as they were then– entertainment and education wrapped around a unique format. Sponsors who believe in us. Viewers who can relate to us. And fish. Lots of fish.”

TNB’s unique personality is part of the appeal. Maina, whose looks would fit just as easily with a surfboard on Long Beach or thrashing a flying V on stage with many of his rock n roll musician friends, is viewed as a rebel of sorts within the fishing world. From authoring books like Muskies Suck to being a guest host on numerous other shows, Maina brings an edgy look and feel to everything he does. When asked if that is a departure from the public’s perception of what fishing personalities usually are, Maina’s response is a simple “Who says fishing aint cool?”

If Maina is considered irreverent, then his two partners would be considered stalwarts to traditional fishingThe Next Bite enthusiasts. Both Gary Parsons Gary Parsons The Next Biteand Keith Kavajecz have been around the lake a few times, and are considered by many to be the top two Walleye professionals in the world. Winning a combined 16 world titles including series championships and Angler-of-the-Year awards, and pioneering the AIM Walleye Tournament, their knowledge of the Midwest’s top game fish is second to none. When they aren’t on the tournament trail or teaching at a seminar, both Kavajecz and Parsons do their fair share of tube time, on their own show and as guests on others.

“Fishing is the greatest sport in the world.” Parsons says. “I’ve been blessed to be able to make a career out of my passion. Working with guys like Keith and Pete make it that much better. We have fun, we get to educate people so that their fishing experience is better, and we make a living doing it. Tell me what could be better?”

Kavajecz agrees. “TNB is a unique show, and I’m lucky to be a part of it. As our experience grows, so does our knowledge. We just want to share as much of that as we can. It’s pretty cool that we have that opportunity.”

The Next Bite can be seen on the Versus Network, a part of the NBC Sports Group, Tuesdays 1:00 pm ET (Noon Central) and Thursdays at 7:30 am ET (6:30 am Central) through June 23, 2011.
