Olympic
2002 heavy weight wrestling champion Rulon Gardner will be at the
SuperCrawl in Farmington New Mexico. Rulon is hosting the national
TV show filmed by Chadwick Booth and Company to be aired on the
Outdoor Channel. Rulon owns a Jeep and is excited about being at
the SuperCrawl. He will be available to sign autographs at Advantage
Dodge during the technical inspection and Show & Shine contest.
Canadian Rock
Crawling Champion Darren Hockney along with his spotter Ed Flowers
will also be at the event competing for the crown. Darren and
Ed took first place at the Ontario rock crawl last summer driving
a 1988 YJ. Darren reports that it takes 37 hours to drive from
Ontario to Farmington not including the stop at the boarder to
pass customs.
Two other
Canadians are also coming with Darren to compete. This brings
the total Canadian representation to five teams.
