    As I've been building my 4Runner, I've been giving serious thought to racing the truck. I've started doing some research on many of the necessary requirements (Which Class to race in--I think it's Class 7, but anyone with knowledge on this, please chime in--upgrades, equipment, cost, etc.).

    What I'd like to do is to have dialogue with those who have experience in this area, whether as a driver, co-driver, logistics, mechanical/crew help, etc.

    If that is you, please respond, as I have a number of questions, and, perhaps, many that I haven't even thought to yet ask.

    As a point of reference, I've been looking mostly at the VORRA series in NV and CA (because of location; I'm in Colorado, and distance of the races).

    Many thanks in advance.

    Joseph.
