I wonder how they keep the Zuki's from flipping over backwards when they fire the rockets

The TOW Missile has little recoil, unlike a 50 Cal Machine Gun (you can't shoot that one broadside), the rocket motor pushes the projectile itself (like a model rocket) and it has no breech....it just lets out exhaust gas and flame...
These guys in the pic are a mechanized tank killer unit....can you just imagine standing down a M1 Abrams tank in a Zuki?

I intentionally searched for a Tracker to fix up. It's small size was the main reason, the great fuel mileage was a bonus. It's currently got 30 x 9.5 15's on it. It's got a 3 " suspension lift waiting to be installed, and then we're building a full roll cage and bumpers for it this spring.
After that some low gears in the transfer case and lockers front and rear. None of the people I know are teasing me about the Tracker because they know it's going to get places even the jeeps can't get to.
Besides, I fit's in my trailer, so I can now have a car when I get to my races without having to unhook my tow rig.
Enjoy your Tracker!

I have always thought that the guys who drove the extra large lifted 4x4 with enormous tires were overcompensating for their other shortcomings

Ha! Ive heard that before!
I gotta tell you, if that's true, then I have some issues! I have a Dodge diesel with a 3" lift, and I race motorcycles (roadracing). Am I trying to make up for any shortcommings?
Oh yea, I race in S.C., GA, FL, and AL every year.

How bad is the addiction; Strictly roadracing, or street and dirt, MX, Trials?
My name is Mark, and I have a motorcycling addiction. And thats a-okay!
I started riding when I was 7, that was 40 years ago. Last year I finished 9th at Daytona. I normally fininish in the top 10. I don't think that's to bad against all the younger guys!
It's a bad addicition, and I see not end in sight. motorcycles, cars and truck, and airplanes are what I spend my time and money on. My last dirt bike was a Husky WR 500. i had to get rid of it before it killed me! Somehow I feel safer on a roadrace track at 160 mph than I do on the dirt!
I race with the MRA (Motorcycle Roadracing Association) and with AHRMA (American Historic Roacing Motorcycle Association) . I'm also chief mechanic for an AMA Pro roadracing team.
It looks like after I fix up this tracker I'll be adding 4-wheeling to my list of interests.

I see men driving trackers in my area all the time. However, it's slightly humorous to see them driving either a metallic pink tracker, or a mint green tracker with lavender accents/designs on the sides.
