The brutal Frame Twister has evolved through the years, and for 2013 it changed again. In 2012 we cut almost 100 feet of fat from the Frame Twister for Top Truck Champions' Challenge, and this year we hacked off another 100 feet or so, which left us with 201 feet of condensed chaos. The course began just a few yards prior to the infamous Squeeze Rock section with its nasty dogleg that likes to flip vehicles. Once clearing the Squeeze, competitors made a left turn and came face-to-face with the gut-wrenching, suspension-bending log section. This section included six strategically placed logs that are perpendicular to the direction of travel and each was separated by deep, water-filled trenches. The log section may only be a few yards in length, but it's an evil section that has ruined the day of many TTC competitors over the years.
Each team had 10 minutes to complete the course. Cones marked the boundaries and a competitor was considered out of bounds if the inside of any one of their vehicles tires traveled past the outside edge of a cone. Hitting a cone resulted in a 30-second penalty and a two-minute penalty (per occurrence) resulted if the competitor violated the winch safety guidelines.
It would be really boring if we constructed our infamous Mud Pit the same each year. Besides, then competitors would know what to expect, and that's unacceptable. Last year, the course was fast and nearly all of the competitors made it through with no problem. This year, we mixed it up (no pun intended) by combining thousands of gallons of water and our special dirt. With a water quotient higher than last year, our 135-foot pit was a delightful, soupy, tire-swallowing mess. Competitors were allowed to run until they ceased forward momentum or crossed the finish line. Running over a cone netted a 30 second penalty for those who completed the course and a 5-foot penalty for those who did not finish. Traveling out of bounds meant disqualification and a two-minute penalty was assessed for safety violations.

That f-350 is a BEAST! Damn.
7:25 ROFLMAO. The Silverado...was not.
That F-350 is f****** SICK!
damn right & seeing the chevy with the cage get smacked was worth drinking beer
-2.5 fucks given that day, that Bronco had sentimental value to me, beautiful machine. Again, all Silverado's failed...miserably.
Jpm King
LoneRBlackWolf that f 350 is a piece of shit
Hey pal go ahead and wake up if you don't see what's going on Ford always be number one idiot
Damn that black Ford is awesome.
not a fan of Fords but that F-350 did it like a boss😎
"What were your thoughts..." "I didn't have any." LOL
That ford is a beast!
4:32 "Very smoothly through these rocks" * As taillights shatters haha
Lol
That cowboy hat dude is a douche.
Love that F350
Wonder Woman called; she wants her bracelet back!
Never liked offroad but damn this F350 with Glen in it is a blast!
that guy in the f-350 knows that if you just hit it fast and dont let up you'll make it 80% of the time
That Ford F-350 is a BEAST!!!!!!!
Beast ass F-350
Holy shit that black ford is badass
Thanks to all the drivers for being willing to run this. Hearing my truck's body scrape against that rock would have just been too much after all the work I've been dumping into it. Best of luck on the rest of the event!
FORD RULES!!!!!
This kind of stuff is what makes america great. Dont matter what is going on in DC the people of the USA is what makes it great
FORD F-350 THOUGH WOW
You are the most upbeat competitor here. I very much enjoyed watching you
I'm a chevy guy but that f350 is an absolute beast!!
I'm usually much more into tuning and track cars but those 4wheeling episodes make me wanna have a truck right now
Glen (F-350) has got some balls! Bitchin' truck! That poor Bronco, though.
I can watch a street racing twice.. I can watch this ALL DAY and never get bored!
Great show, good host and what a fun to watch. A real American show.
That F-350 is so fucking boss.
Jonathan Tansits used to live 5 mins away from him in Winfield
Fords are on top!
Ford!
I got a BUILT k30 1 ton but this video proves if it ain’t a ford it ain’t number 1 can’t wait to build a old ford I like my Chevy but I got my soft spot for them old fords badass rigs they are
that f350 is the best truck in ttc history!
I like the supercharged Bronco, the 350 is a beast, i love it. So far this is pretty cool.
My childhood right here
that black Ford killed itt!!!
Nowadays this challenge consists of tubes on wheels. Love the full body trucks
That F350 is a unstoppable!
I used to be able to do frame twister and the mud hole and make it half way up tank trap without a scratch in my stock toyota pickup with 33's and a 4" lift. Top truck ruined hollister for me. but the videos are worth it!!
f350 was like "oh, there was mud down there"
the Broncos and that f350 are sick
The air filter at 5:00 always cracks me up. The way it's just flopping around is too good.
"im kinda local, its 250miles away from my house" Waat?
Gotta say, that F-350 is pretty bad ass. nice to see something that doesn't have an LS of some kind takin' names.
FORD POWER !!!
yea ford al the way
Ford! Ford! Ford!
The black F-350 is the coolest truck I have ever seen.
That red full size chevy is bad ass.
If he woulda gotten some speed and gone BALLS TO THE WALLS!! he woulda made it all the way no problamo!
Nate Karr That Chevy is pretty horrible has way to much body lift making it looks just awkward and is also Mid engine ? its probably the most pointless vehicle in this lineup
I don't give a fuck what you say. I like it.
Gotta say the Ford f150 is a great truck ** Amsoil top choice for sure
Glens Black Ford actually has a 540 big block in it. It was entered with a 460 but he had a bigger motor built before he came there. It definitely had some power!
Love that 350 and the Vdub!!!
Thanks!
The V dub is yours?! Kick ass!! Matt Huit
James Stevick It's all mine.
Bitchin' my man Matt Huit
James Stevick Thanks a lot!
That f350is one beast of a machine
That red Chevy was half way done with the logs before the rear tires even got to it!
The ford f350 was bad ass! Did it without the winch too. Sick
That F-series is a doomsday machine.
Normally big trucks don't do well off-road, but that Ford is proving otherwise.
i would be a little mad if i HAD to damage my truck to get through a competition. that wasn't well planned out and kind of dick.
If I could own one for function it would be the f350. But that vw is just way too cool.
Thanks man! I had a bad run.
+Matt Huit On the logs maybe, but you made the rocks and mud pit look easy!
+firelizard2 Thanks! My rig was built to do those types of obstacles.
Whoa... I had never seen this "Top Truck" thing before, but what's sure is that I will see more.
That Silverado needs to go back to the drawing board and maybe get a few feet closer to the ground. The only thing it could do well is wade deeper than everyone else XD
The Fords are always going to be number one
that f-350 is completely insane
the black Ford truck was badass in the mud
That squeeze rock put the 1st dent on my Cherokee years ago!
That F350 knows how to put on a show!
I wish I still had my 78 f350. I only had 429 but with a blower and three big carburetor sit made over 1700 ft lbs but wasn't nearly as clean.
He doesn't wanna scratch the body, these Volkswagen 4x4's are really rare .... Same guy cut out fenders carelessly and completely haha
That f350 ... Love it
That f-350 is amazing
That F-350 refuses to be stopped
That f-350 is a beast
Ford Baby!!!
not exactly a ford anymore really
Peter S Your right its basically a Ford! haha :D :D :D
Ha Ha, all those interviews: Q: What's your plan? A: Uhhh..........i dont know.... Just do it.... ha ha! Great video though.
The F350 is awesome!
I noticed that too. What a ridiculous time piece.
Yeah the fuel pump and electrical issues he faced on the 1st day really affected everything. You'll see how well he maneuvers the large Crew Cab in the next portion with fuel getting to the motor!
6:41 that is a cool jeep in the background
JK 6x6 looks like
No Jeep is cool no matter what it is
I love watching top truck challenge
^ is right. we know how to fast forward. keep up the series.
These are snippets of the event. If you want the full video, you can get it from Four Wheeler Magazine.
Note to self- air down for the logs. Glen Green had minimal air in his tires, the grip he had in the logs is amazing.
I didn't see any Royal Purple stickers on those trucks. ;)
That F-350 is giving me a mild chub
omf! are going to show all the top truck footage here? thats flippin awesome! i love you guys!"
Glen Green's F-350 sounds incredible!!!
i think yall need to take the running start out and make them start at the start of the pit like they would actually do in a mud bog.
Carolinabogger
that is one bad ass F350
Well, you don't exactly buy a brand new truck when you're going to cut everything out of it anyway. You buy the cheapest heap you can get your hands on and build from there.
wow!, that 1st challenge, the squeeze threw thing looked tough!! and rough!!
I really do hope Opel can make a Taranis (concept car) body kit for future models to come, then maybe my OCD would finally let me actually go offroading.
Oops. I commented before I watched the whole video. I guess it was a winch competition. What's with all the likes?
Fucn sweet rides man
Great interview responses from the drivers.
jennifer smith # 28 FORD BRONCO es la mujer mas admirable del reto QUE valor para estar ahi le felicito saludos desde AGUASCALIENTES AGS . MEXICO

You have the best video s in the howl world
Daniel Mucci you mean "whole world" i think.
Can't wait to see that big shiny Chevy get all chewed up by the tank trap
I loved when that f350 went flying through the mud it reminded me of mudfreak79's early days
Paul did get hung up there, but could have winched himself through. But he had an issue with his alternators and they quit charging his battery and he lost power to the winch and drained his battery.
